BMC makes changes in design following objections; work on overpass expected to take 15 months excluding monsoon

The BMC has cleared the remnants of the earlier structure outside the Anjuman-e-Islam institute
More than two years after a foot overbridge collapsed at CSMT killing seven people and injuring 30, the work on a new overpass is back on track. The civic body said it has redesigned the staircase to ensure that it doesn’t block any of the gates of the Anjuman-e-Islam institute.
mid-day had reported earlier this month about the delay in reconstruction of the bridge, connecting the north end of CSMT with Badaruddin Tayabji Lane, due to issues raised by the neighbouring heritage structures. As per the initial plans, the bridge would have completely blocked one of the gates of the institute.
