Bus bays for Nepean Sea Road

Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) along with the local residents of Nepean Sea Road are planning to improvise the locality by adding footpaths, important junctions as well as bus bays. Doing so with the help of CSR funds, the locals have been promoting this initiative to help senior citizens walk comfortably on the road without any hindrances. The 30m long bus bays will enable buses to move in and move out easily. The idea is to ensure an easy movement of buses and an easy commute for the pedestrians. Assistant Municipal Commissioner of BMC D ward, Prashant Gaikwad while drawing attention to the nonuniform width of platform in the area said, “While the effective road width is 6.5m, it is not standardised at all junctions.”
