The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has decided to conduct a structural audit of every flyover, culvert and foot overbridge (FOB) on both the Eastern and Western Express Highways. Last year, the Mumbai Metropolitan Development Authority (MMRDA) handed over both stretches to the civic body.

An official from the roads department said, “We decided to conduct the audit as some flyovers are nearly two decades old.” “Also, we need to maintain records of flyovers and other structures on the highways as they have been handed over to us by the MMRDA,” the official said.
