The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is facing criticism for the misalignment between the CD Barfiwala flyover and the newly constructed Gokhale Bridge in Andheri. BMC Commissioner I S Chahal stated that the height of the Gokhale Bridge needed to be increased by 1.5 meters as per Railways specifications. The Barfiwala flyover is crucial for directing traffic from areas like Juhu onto the bridge.
In a classic case of bad planning, BMC style, two new congestion-busting east-west bridges are ready, but their meeting point Gokhale bridge has been declared dilapidated and will be demolished, rendering everything useless
