Mumbai to get safer to walk, as experts to redesign junctions for pedestrians

To change things in favour of pedestrians, New York-based National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO), Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) and Mumbai traffic police have begun redesigning some parts of the city.
