Alternate Bing–Borsuk conjecture via approximate fibrations

Let XX be nicely embedded in Rm+n\mathbb R^{m+n} for some m3m\geq 3, and suppose that XX has a mapping cylinder neighborhood N=CϕN=C_\phi of a map ϕ:NX\phi:\partial N\to X, with mapping cylinder projection π:NX\pi:N\to X. An approximate fibration is a map having the approximate homotopy lifting property. Alternate Bing–Borsuk conjecture. The projection π:NX\pi:N\to X is an approximate fibration. This formulation is stated as equivalent to the Bing–Borsuk conjecture and remains open with it.
