Work to increase the capacity of the Mogra nullah at the Andheri subway has been stalled due to traffic congestion linked to the delay in the construction of Gokhale bridge. Officials, however, claim that two floodgates, which are being fabricated at present, will help drain rainwater rapidly during the monsoon.

Andheri subway is often closed to traffic during the rainy season as it is a chronic waterlogging point.
