The Maharashtra Rail Infrastructure Development Corporation Limited (MRIDC) and the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) have finalised a plan to rebuild century-old heritage Reay Road Bridge with cable-stayed one.

The British-era bridge constructed in 1904, though in good condition, needs major repairs, as suggested in the audit by structural engineers of the BMC. The bridge was also shut for a week last year after a passing lorry hit one of its cast-iron pillars damaging it badly.
