A senior MSRDC official said the designs are likely to be prepared and submitted by September and a decision on the Peddar Road Flyover is expected after the monsoon.
In July, a committee had rejected the MSRDC’s design for the flyover with two pillars on Chowpatty, sending the plan back to the drawing board eight years after it was mooted. The MCZMA, the state agency that oversees all coastal construction activities, had rejected permission to the flyover on similar grounds in 2006. Apart from environmental hurdles, the proposed 4.5 km flyover has also faced stiff opposition from Peddar Road residents, who include singer Lata Mangeshkar.
