As the pandemic plays out, heritage consultants appointed by the civic body are going ahead with the Mumbai Milestone project.
This initiative aims to repair and restore the few British era milestones in the city. The distance markers, made of stone, begin at Fort and go on approximately till Sion. These had been installed by the British to indicate the distances from Zero Miles which was at Fort.
