Mumbai residents experience some annoyance from the city's rains, but when man-made problems are added, things can get worse and more bothersome. A video has gone viral on the internet that shows passengers crossing the exposed connecting bridge that connects the WEH Metro station with Gundavali in Andheri when it is raining.

This is what happened 

In the video, commuters are seen strolling across the bridge while using umbrellas despite the light rain. There is rainwater visible on the marble flooring of the bridge, which might cause someone to trip and fall at any time.
Mumbai Matterz posted the video on X with the comment, "Just asking @MumbaiMetro01 @MMRDAOfficial @MMMOCL_Official." Do not you have adequate resources to cover the Gundavali to WEH Metro station link so that travelers would not get soaked? When it gets wet, even the flooring becomes slick."

To alert the relevant authorities, including Mumbai Metro One, MMRDA, and the Mumbai Metro One Official, the user specifically marked the X accounts. Netizens have responded to the video in a few different ways. Neither Mumbai Metro One nor the MMRDA have released an official statement regarding the video. But as the film shows, if nothing is done quickly, there is still a significant chance of a tragedy. The intensity of rainfall will steadily rise as the monsoon moves farther into the city, increasing the risk for commuters using the connecting bridge.
