Mumbai: A nearly 100 ft × 100 ft stretch of LBS Marg in Bhandup (West) caved in on Saturday afternoon amid heavy rainfall, creating a massive crater and disrupting traffic in the area.

The incident occurred around 1 pm on LBS Marg, opposite the Asian Paints premises, where excavation work was underway. According to civic officials, no injuries were reported. However, a tempo parked at the site fell into the collapsed portion of the road after the surface gave way over the excavation pit.
