Safe Routes to School in Nashik

4th September 2026 by

For lakhs of school-going children, the daily journey to school involves navigating parked vehicles, crossing busy streets, and walking in environments with inadequate pedestrian infrastructure.

Recognising these challenges and building on the Supreme Court’s (SC) recent judgment of the Right to Walk, Nashik Municipal Corporation (NMC) is advancing safer and more inclusive streets through its Healthy Streets initiative. School streets emerged as an ideal opportunity to demonstrate how low-cost, people-centred interventions can significantly improve safety, accessibility, and comfort while maintaining efficient traffic movement.

Footpath Fix

27th July 2018 by Leave a Comment

The Footpath Fix is a step-by-step guide on footpath construction detailing for urban designers, municipal engineers, and contractors. Cities across India now acknowledge that walking plays a fundamental role in everyday life. Thereupon, good quality footpaths must be provided to make walking safe and attractive.

Basic footpath design standards such as the optimal height, adequate width, continuous and obstacle-free surface are detailed in the first volume of the Footpath Series – Footpath Design.

Attention to construction details, especially that of different utilities is articulated in this second volume – Footpath Fix. Several footpath projects have failed due to improper construction and execution; thus, this guide aims to highlight the steps, in a chronological order, from pre-excavation to above-ground construction.  It also features necessary precautions, drawing from experience on-ground, that must be taken into consideration at each stage of construction.
