Lack of sidewalks on main road poses risks to pedestrians, prompting calls for action from civic authorities

Missing designated space or pavements for pedestrians in Aarey
As the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) focuses on constructing the main Aarey Milk Colony road using cement concrete, it appears that they may have overlooked an important aspect for pedestrians who use the road. The lack of designated space or pavements for pedestrians raises worries about safety and well-being.
Thousands of people reside inside Aarey Milk Colony, and the main road is also used by hundreds of pedestrians daily, including morning and evening walkers. Aarey Milk Colony is also a preferred location among nature lovers who visit the area. The lack of public space or footpaths for walking is a concerning issue, as senior citizens and children also have to walk on the road, risking their lives.
