With footpaths in the rest of Mumbai being taken over by cars, autos and bikes, why would those in Andheri East and West, Vile Parle and Juhu be any different.

The Bombay High Court has been slamming the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation for not allowing free access to pedestrians as was seen in its recent order that Ganeshotsav should not disturb pedestrian movement. And, if pandals were stopped from blocking footpaths, pedestrian movement blocked by parking goes unnoticed. The areas of Andheri East and West, Versova and Juhu are among the city's highly congested areas.
