The MMRDA will link large housing societies, busy office complexes and public hubs along the new Metro corridors to skywalks as a part of last mile connectivity. The two in the plan now are Oberoi Mall and NESCO.
“Metro stations will be linked to popular hubs near them with the help of skywalks or travelators, so that commuter crowds do not have to walk, take autos and buses to reach there. We will explore accesses for pedestrians from the metro stations to shopping complexes, residential societies and malls there. There is a scope of having travelators as well, to ease walking,” S V R Srinivas, metropolitan commissioner, Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) said.
