A facelift is on the cards, for the foot overbridges (FOBs) on the Eastern Express Highway (EEH) between Sion and Mulund that are in not a good shape. The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) has decided to repair the FOBs, which, for lack of maintenance, have become derelict with uneven and broken tiles in several places, causing inconvenience to pedestrians and forcing them to cross the road.
