Two days after shutting the Lower Parel bridge, the BMC now wants the railways to carry out a detailed inspection again and take a second opinion on whether reconstruction is needed. Municipal Commissioner Ajoy Mehta said it will completely be the railways' call whether or not to accept the second opinion, and the civic body won't interfere.

In a joint meeting with all stakeholders, Mehta also said to consider opening up Delisle bridge at least for pedestrians and light vehicles. A decision will be taken after a joint inspection by all stakeholders today.
