Carter Road will have to wait a while before it gets a completely new face, thanks to the contractor appointed for its revamp hauling the Maharashtra Maritime Board (MMB) to court for terminating their contract. The reasons for the termination were substandard work as well as failure to meet deadline. Speaking to mid-day, MMB's Pradip Badiye said, "The contractor, who was blacklisted by MMB for substandard work and for not completing the work at Bandra promenade, has approached the court, so the new contract has not been awarded yet. As per the plan, the damaged tiles on the promenade will be completely changed along with beautification and landscaping work."
