Mumbai: BMC Re-Invites Proposals to Improve Footpath Accessibility

Mumbai: BMC Re-Invites Proposals to Improve Footpath Accessibility

Imagine that the city is trying to make it easier for everyone, especially people with disabilities, to walk on the footpaths.

The city asked groups to check the footpaths to see if they are easy to use for people in wheelchairs or who have trouble seeing.

But, the rules were too difficult.

So, the city is trying again, making it easier for the groups to participate.

These groups will check the footpaths, suggest improvements, and come up with ideas to make them better.

The goal is to ensure that everyone can safely and easily walk on the footpaths.

Some people think the city should also make sure new roads and roads being fixed include easy to use footpaths from the start.
