The new cable-stayed bridge at Reay Road, which was supposed to complete in May 2024, will be ready by November. Maharashtra Rail Infrastructure Development Corporation (MRIDC) said that the BMC had asked it to revise the deadline for asphalting and other finishing works post-monsoon, when it will be commissioned for the public.

Work on the bridge had started in February 2022 and given the criticism for delays in the construction of bridges and related traffic jams, the original plan was to complete the bridge in two years. A visit to the site by mid-day found that of the six pairs of cables to be erected, only one had been placed along with the girders, but the steel parts were still being assembled.
