The Reay Road Cable-Stayed Road Over Bridge, a crucial east-west connector of the city, is expected to be completed by March 2024.

"In a bid to modernise and enhance Mumbai's infrastructure, the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) has entrusted the Maharashtra Rail Infrastructure Development Corporation (MRIDC), also known as MahaRail, with the task of reconstructing 10 dilapidated British Era road over bridges across the city and suburban areas. Reay Road over bridge is one of them," said an official, adding that work of Byculla, Tilak Bridge (Dadar) and Ghatkopar ROB also started.

As of now, approximately 50 per cent of the construction work for the Cable Stayed Road Over Bridge at Reay Road has been completed. Officials from MahaRail have confirmed that all foundation work has been finalised, and the focus has shifted to the girder launching and superstructure stages. With an estimated length of 385 metres and boasting six lanes, the new bridge is poised to alleviate the traffic congestion that plagues Mumbai's roadways.
