Brihanmumbai Corporation has barricaded a dilapidated bridge over Nilkanth Nullah following a recent audit conducted after the fatal Himalaya foot over-bridge crash at CSMT in March. The bridge over Nilkanth Nullah, which was built in 1986, is the 14th dangerous bridge to be shut down by the corporation so far.
As per a report from Times of India, local corporator Parag Shah said, "the audit, carried out between 2016 and 2018, had stated that the bridge over Nilkanth Nullah required major repairs. But the re-audit done after the fatal Himalaya foot over-bridge crash at CSMT in March declared this bridge dangerous. Hence, we decided to shut it."
