112-Year-Old Elphinstone Bridge Closed For Demolition Amid Heavy Police Presence
September 13, 2025: At around 10 pm on Friday, the 112-year-old Elphinstone Bridge, linking Prabhadevi and Parel, was closed under tight police security to begin demolition works. The British-era structure, which straddles both Central and Western railway lines, is being dismantled to make way for the under-construction Sewri-Worli Elevated Connector.
