The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has begun launching girders for the approaches to the Gopal Krishna Gokhale Bridge. Meanwhile, a trial run for moving the girder of the Carnac Bridge within the BMC’s limits was successful, covering 9.30 metres.

On Wednesday, work commenced on launching the girders for the approach road of the Gopal Krishna Gokhale Bridge in Andheri West. This work was originally scheduled for December 2024 but faced delays due to issues with levelling the girder over the railway portion. The levelling process, which was expected to finish by November 2024, was completed only in the last week of December 2024. According to the BMC’s timeline, all girders for the approach road are to be launched by mid-February 2025. If achieved, the project is expected to be completed by March 2025.
