The Maharashtra Public Works Department (PWD) has invited bids for appointing a consultant to prepare the architectural design of a proposed ropeway connecting the foothills of Mulund to Taramati Mata Temple inside Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP) with views of Tulsi Lake. The move marks a significant step towards developing what could become Mumbai's first ropeway project, reported the IANS.

Mulund BJP MLA Mihir Kotecha, who had earlier proposed the ropeway to boost tourism in the area, confirmed the development to IANS on Monday and welcomed the government's decision to float the tender.
