Saturday, March 22, 2025 Maharashtra, India greenlights a transformative 45-ropeway project to revolutionize tourism, ease traffic, and enhance access to iconic destinations across the state. The state government has recently approved the construction of 45 ropeways to be managed by the National Highways Logistics Management Ltd (NHLML). This initiative aims to enhance tourism and alleviate traffic congestion across Maharashtra.
It is part of the central government’s larger effort to improve infrastructure within the state. The project will focus on developing key ropeways at popular tourist destinations such as Raigad Fort, Matheran, Alibaug Chowpatty to Alibaug Fort, and the Elephanta Caves, among others. These new ropeways will improve access to these sites while promoting eco-friendly travel options that offer scenic views.
One of the highlighted locations for this development is Raigad Fort, a historic landmark tied to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Currently accessible only through a challenging hike, it will be modernized with an upgraded, convenient ropeway system, making it easier for tourists to explore this iconic site.
