The usual din that surrounds the Andheri station on mornings was interrupted by a loud thud on Tuesday, when the walkway portion of the Gokhale over bridge, which connects Andheri East and West, collapsed. The incident injured five people and disrupted train services to and from Andheri till the afternoon.

While the portion of the walkway collapsed around 7.30 am, further casualties were avoided by the presence of mind displayed by a motorman whose train was about to pass under the bridge.
