Fed up of illegal posters and stickers defacing the pillars of Versova-Andheri Ghatkopar Metro rail along the 11.07-km corridor, the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) and Mumbai Metro One Private Limited (MMOPL) have come up with a smart solution. They have planted creepers around the pillars, which not only beautify the pillars but will also make it impossible to stick illegal posters and stickers.

The MMRDA and MMOPL have been facing the problem of illegal banners on metro pillars for a long time. JP Road in Andheri West is one patch which has seen incessant misuse.
