Mira Road, Bhayander to get 10 veggie, fruit markets

The Mira Bhayander Municipal corporation (MBMC) has earmarked 10 reserved plots for municipal markets in the bustling suburbs. The proposal has been sent to the state government for approval. The region, which boasts a population of 10 lakh, currently does not have a single municipal market for vegetables and fruits. As of now, most major roads in Mira-Bhayander are encroached upon by hawkers illegally selling vegetables and fruits.

Earlier, MBMC had set aside two plots—one each at Navghar in Bhayander (East) and near Mira road railway station—for the markets. Now, a total of 10 have been reserved for the purpose.

Certain plots meant for schools, gardens and playgrounds were dereserved for the markets. A few belong to the Central government.

Municipal commissioner Shivmurti Naik said allocation of space for the markets will help get rid of hawkers occupying roads. Despite the bifurcation of hawking and non-hawking zones in the region, most roads and footpaths are encroached upon by fruit and vegetable hawkers. Civic sources said a few plots, which have been reserved for markets have also been encroached upon.

  4. i have observed that roads in mira road is in very pathetic condition, whereby one of the road (MTNL road)was eradicated last August after ganpati, whereby saying that additional sewerline and waterline is being laid. But till today, all the works of laying pipeline with chambers have been completed. but the road are not finished smooth, and left with all the gravels on the top. this road is main road, whereby earlier buses to Bandra and thane used to ply. But we staying along the RNA daily catch buses to Bandra earlier, hoping that someday mira road will be a green and clean, and we will go to our destination using this buses by just getting down and walking few distance and to catch buses.But this area has becoming more pathetic. Kindly do the same so that autos buses can ply and make our life somewhat easier......
