Mumbai, March 24: Major traffic congestion has gripped South Mumbai after repair and concreting work began on the Parel TT flyover, leading to the closure of one carriageway.
Lane closures and diversions implemented
Mumbai Traffic Police have shut the northbound lane of the bridge for vehicular movement, diverting traffic to the southbound lane during evening hours. In the morning, traffic on the southbound lane will be restored to normal, while northbound vehicles will be diverted from below the bridge.
Congestion worsens due to nearby closures
The situation has worsened further as the nearby Elphinstone flyover is also currently closed, resulting in heavy congestion across key arterial routes in South Mumbai. Officials stated that the repair work on the Parel TT bridge is expected to take at least one and a half months.
