The Gopal Krishna Gokhale Bridge in Andheri has reached its final construction stage, with the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) completing the crucial task of launching the second girder.
This was done on Sunday night, with 25 metres of the girder pushed forward on September 4 and the remaining 65 metres between 8 pm on Sunday and 5 am on Monday. This completes the 90-metre shift over the railway section.
