Malad – The number of hawkers has increased on the foot over bridge (FOB) connecting East and West part of the suburb. This has been creating problems for pedestrians as they find less space to walk as most of the space on the FOB is being occupied by the hawkers. These illegal hawkers vanish from there as soon as civic body’s anti-encroachment squad officials arrive on the scene. They reappear and continue to encroach the FOB.
