The stretch beneath Andheri’s Teli Galli flyover, which links the recently opened Gopal Krishna Gokhale bridge and the Western Express Highway, has been turned into an unofficial dumping zone for abandoned autorickshaws and two-wheelers. Citing a fire that broke out at the spot a year ago, residents raised a host of concerns.

The Telli Galli flyover was opened to traffic on February 27, 2024. Abandoned vehicles are being moved to the spot due to the construction of a skywalk linking the Gundavali Metro station on Line 7 to the Western Express Highway Metro station on Line 1. Apart from being an eyesore, these clunkers pose serious safety and health concerns, Andheri residents told mid-day.
