“The inception of the project dates back to 2021, and it stands as both ecologically conscious and beneficial for the citizens,” stated Thackeray, Shiv Sena UBT MLA. He criticised the suspension of the Siri Road Eco-Pathway project, labelling it a misguided decision. A need exists for an exemplary eco-friendly pathway catering to citizens engaged in morning walks. Thus, the existing stay order needs to be cancelled, Thackeray highlighted in the letter. Nevertheless, speculation among the populace is rife, questioning whether the government plans to relinquish the land in question to a builder who is close to them after they cancel the project.
BMC sanctioned a project valued at Rs 16 crore in 2021, spanning a length of 400 metres from Siri Road to Babulnath, and extending to 2.4 metres in width. Distinguished by its elevated nature, the pathway attains a height of 2 to 8 metres above ground level. This endeavour embodies Aaditya Thackeray’s visionary aspiration for the city, which he proposed during his tenure as tourism minister.
