The much-awaited Mulund East-West foot overbridge (FOB), being built by the Prime Minister’s Gati Shakti Unit, has missed yet another deadline. The Gati Shakti Unit was launched in 2021 to facilitate multimodal connectivity infrastructure to various economic zones.

Officials had promised completion before the monsoon and even installed signage claiming the bridge would be ready by May-end. But as of today, work remains far from complete — with the bridge not even half-done.

The FOB was the only non-ticketed pedestrian route connecting Mulund East and West. It has been shut for over a year now, forcing commuters to either walk long distances to alternative bridges or buy tickets just to cross the railway station.
