The BMC has approved a plan to construct an elevated walkway on Malabar Hill. There are several skywalks, but the one planned at Malabar Hill will be the first of its kind in the city.
The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has cleared a plan for the construction of an elevated walkway through the woods on Malabar Hill. It will be a 900-metre-long trail with a width of 1.5 metres. Once ready, one could take a canopy walk through the woods and get an unhindered view of the sea. This project is likely to be completed by the end of 2021. The city has several skywalks but there are no elevated leisure walkways. The one planned at Malabar Hill will be the first of its kind in the city.
“A route for walkers/joggers and tourists alike with a fantastic view and surroundings, coming soon,” tweeted Maharashtra Tourism minister, Aditya Thackeray, about the project. The viewing deck will have a width of 5 metres and a glass base. The cost of the project will be approximately Rs 10 crore. Rahul Kadri, who resides in the neighbourhood of Malabar Hill, is the architect for this project.
