Following the drastic Mumbai CST bridge collapse which raised question over the safety of commuters in Mumbai, another case of a wide crack appearing on the Matunga foot-over-bridge has come up. After pictures of commuters walking on the bridge which had wide cracks went viral on social media wherein Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis was tagged, the Western Railway sprung into action and alerted officials of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), who after inspecting the bridge once again, declared it safe for the commuters.
