The Central Railway (has failed to complete the much-awaited FOB parallel to the Elphinstone Road overbridge

It is a rucial link that would have allowed commuters and pedestrians to cross from east to west once the road bridge is shut for traffic

The incomplete Central Railway section of the FOB is the only bridge directly parallel to the Elphinstone Road bridge, and could have offered major relief after the now closed Elphinstone Bridge

The Western Railway side of the bridge, located in the west, was opened to the public a few years ago

However, work on the CR portion, which began last year, remains incomplete
