Nana Nanis set to lose 184 trees in their Versova park

Excavation has started within the 20-year-old Nana-Nani Park for the Versova exit of the Bandra–Versova Sea Link. While the park was saved from complete removal, residents remain concerned about tree loss and long-term impact on the green space

Work for the Bandra-Versova Sea Link’s Versova exit has begun inside Nana-Nani Park, with excavation for 5 to 6 pillars underway for two days. The project earlier proposed removing the entire park, but after protests in August 2025, the design was revised to build an elevated road above it with pillars inside the park. As per the revised plan, 184 trees will be cut and another 164 will be transplanted. Residents say they now hope the 20-year-old green space survives construction.
