Residents of Dr BR Ambedkar Road at Matunga (East) have submitted a proposal to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) to develop a garden and a small jogger’s track on the empty space below the Maheshwari Udyan-Tulpule flyover (known as Tulpule flyover), in an effort to prevent the space from being encroached by an illegal parking lot, or being taken over by squatters.

Youngsters play games under the Maheshwari Udyan-Tulpule Chowk flyover at Matunga (East). Residents of the area want to beautify the space to prevent encroachments. PIC/ Satyajit Desai
