Thus, 50% of inspection time is saved by this new inspection method. The conventional method makes the task difficult for the staff as they have to carry tools and equipment while climbing on the long ladder. In the Mumbai Suburban Section (Churchgate-Virar) there are 110 foot over bridges, 29 road over bridges and four water pipeline bridges,” he added.

Giving details of the bridge, Bhakar said, “The Mahalaxmi road over the bridge was constructed in 1920 & has 15 girders with five spans. After the inspection, between 1 am to 1:45 pm, the bridge was found to be structurally sound and in a safe condition.

On inspection, Bandra-Kalanagar Road Over Bridge, constructed in the year 1961, carried out between 1 am to 4 am was found to be structurally sound and in a safe condition.
