Following court direction, the petitioner activist, a forest range officer and a BMC officer visited the proposed cycle track site at SGNP for joint inspection on Wednesday. The photographs of the inspection were submitted which showed that the cycle track was on the other side of the forest.
The remarks from the minister come amid reports of an ambitious 40-km cycle track project in Mumbai not taking off. Also, the existing cycle tracks are seeing few cyclists as they were apparently built without proper planning.
