Mumbai's first skywalk on the east side of Bandra station needs major structural repairs and reconstruction of all its staircases, VJTI experts have said in a preliminary audit report. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) had closed the skywalk in June due to safety reasons. BMC officers have said a decision will be taken on the skywalk after joint site visits and discussions.

The Bandra skywalk connects Bandra station to the Western Express Highway. The BMC had decided to close many foot overbridges and skywalks after the collapse of the Himalaya Bridge at CSMT. Bandra skywalk is one of them. The BMC closed it on June 19. The MMRDA had also cut a 100 metres portion of the skywalk on the highway in April, due to the construction of its flyovers.
