BMC missed the deadline to repair the cave-in on a road near Metro Cinema before PM Modi's arrival last morning. While Modi's visit of South Mumbai ended before evening, the Anandilal Podar Road near Marine Lines station was fully operational only after 4 pm. Civic officials, however, said there was no problem during morning peak hours, and that the PM used MG Road.

Till last evening, only one lane was open, from Churchgate towards CST, near Gol Masjid, after a 600-mm-diameter water pipeline burst during Monday's rains, leading to the cave-in.
