Bhushan Gagrani, Brihanmumbai Municipal Company (BMC) commissioner and administrator, stated the present carrying capability of the walkway is round 400 individuals. “The walkway is supported by wooden pillars. If the crowd isn’t monitored at the entrance, the walkway could collapse. Controlling the crowd is therefore crucial,” he stated.
Malabar Hill Walkway to open in Feb
A payment of ₹10-15 will likely be levied on every particular person utilizing the walkway. The gang will likely be regulated on the entry level by an digital system that makes use of scanners. It is going to show the variety of individuals coming into the walkway. “It will take 15 days to put this system in place. We also need to bar people from carrying food and drinks inside, except for water, to prevent monkeys from crowding,” Gagrani stated.
The walkway path is thru the 12-acre greens of the Malabar Hill forest that gives a panoramic view of the cityscape and Girgaon Chowpatty. The stroll will take guests on an immersive pure journey, offering a spot of recreation and experiencing nature.
