Over six months ago, a sizable section of the skywalk was demolished to make room for Metro line 2B (DN Nagar to Mandale)

The skywalk's pillars, walkway, and metal bars were all removed, however as of right now, the safety cover at its sides was still in place

Owing to our persistent follow-up, the Bandra Skywalk, that was acting as a hindrance to traffic and was disturbing the aesthetics of our city, will be finally demolished, Bandra MLA Ashish Shelar wrote on X

The skywalk had been reportedly transferred from the MMRDA to the BMC, which is demolishing the skywalk

Sections of the skywalk will be carefully removed, and the debris will be transported away from the site promptly

The Bandra Skywalk's removal marks the new developments aimed at enhancing the urban landscape

With the Bandra skywalk gone, views of the iconic Bandra station will be unblocked
