There are two major projects in this city and they include the central park that is already developed while the second one is the Anandvan Green Belt. This project will come up along the outskirts of the Sanjay Gandhi National Park lying between Borivli and Goregaon.
Among the plans proposed for developing the new verdant clusters of trees, it involves paving the area with stones potential for nature trails with trees along the pathways for Mumbaikar’s to escape to some natural exercise. This green belt will serve those citizens who find themselves in a need to take a break from the city living and strengthen the area’s green territory factor in Mumbai.
Bamboo Trees and the Balasaheb Thackeray Urban Greening Project
