MUMBAI: After several hiccups and delays since it was demolished over six years ago, the BMC opened the reconstructed Hancock bridge that connects Mazgaon to Dongri on Monday following a Bombay high court order.
Local residents and activists, however, are livid as certain works are still pending, including painting of the bridge. They are already upset with BMC for scaling down the reconstruction project from four lanes to two as it failed to acquire space because occupants of the buildings on access roads refused to vacate.
