Bombay Dyeing proposal for P. Budkar Marg ALM

A) The Concept:  

The self sustainable model is designed utilizing the rag pickers in an organized manner to collect and segregate dry & wet waste whereby the dry waste is sold and generates revenue and wet waste is initially handed over the MCGM but later as the initiative gets the support of the community the wet waste is pulverized and placed in vermin-composting pits and recycled into soil which can be sold as manure.

B) Location of the Initiative:

Pandurang Budhkar Marg:

Area includes the footpath opposite Elphinstone Mill, round the corner, either side of Deepak Talkies footpath and the approach road to Bombay Dyeing Mills all the way down to Worli Naka.  

Site Plan as per Annexure A.

C) Present Scenario:  

Presently at PB Marg is facing the following issues;

1)     Lot of visible waste spread over the street,

2)     Vagrant Vagabonds occupying the footpaths making pedestrian use difficult

3)     Lack of sanitation on either side of road on account of squatting by these vagrants & vagabonds,

4)     Absence of public toilet in close proximity of slums main reason for squatting,

5)     Large amount of parking in a no parking zone detrimental to cleanliness

6)     Beautification programme undertaken not well maintained.
