The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is unlikely to reopen the Gokhale Bridge in Andheri any time soon. The bridge has been shut for pedestrians and traffic movement for more than three weeks.
Last week, the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) and the Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute (VJTI) had submitted a report to the civic body, saying the bridge could be reopened temporarily but only after carrying out multiple repairs.
But civic officials said some points in the two reports, submitted by the two institutes, were conflicting in nature. While the two reports drew the same conclusion, there were multiple points that contradicted each other, said BMC.
