The partial opening of Andheri's Gokhale Road bridge for light vehicles is expected to be delayed by at least three weeks, as the IIT-B's interim suggestions are different from that of the VJTI. The BMC on Wednesday said it will study both the reports and take a final decision in the next 7-10 days.
The BMC on Tuesday was hopeful of giving two- and three-wheelers access to the bridge in a week based on the remedies suggested by the Veermata Jijabai Technology Institute (VJTI). The VJTI had recommended some repairs before opening the Gokhale bridge partially.
