On a key Bandra East stretch that connects to the Western Express Highway and the Metro Aqua Line’s Bandra Colony Metro station, the only thing “in progress” right now is the risk. For nearly 2-4 weeks, construction barriers meant to cordon off a dug-up patch on Sharada Devi Road have been lying toppled in the middle of traffic, exposing a pothole and unstable mud surface that locals say could trigger a serious accident any day.
