The parts of the second girder of the Gopal Krishna Gokhale Bridge in Andheri have started arriving on-site. The process of joining the girders will begin soon, but it will take more than two months, and the entire bridge won’t open before the monsoon. Meanwhile, experts from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT-B) supported Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute (VJTI)’s suggestion regarding the alignment of the Barfiwala bridge with the existing Gokhale flyover. The BMC will seek permission from the election commission before starting the work due to the model code of conduct in place.
