The bhoomipujan of the Dahisar-D N Nagar-Bandra Metro line (Metro II) was done on Sunday, and with it, BMC’s plans to build flyovers along New Link Road have been shelved. But the civic body may construct them across it.

The civic body was issued a letter by MMRDA to keep the project on hold while the alignment for Metro was being finalised. The MMRDA had asked BMC to build the bridges across the Link Road instead of alongside, considering the alignment.
