Mumbai is known as the city that never sleeps, but it slows down due to traffic snarls, illegally parked cars and pothole-ridden roads. Due to these reasons, people usually avoid taking their cars on streets of Mumbai.
On Monday, Mumbai witnessed heavy traffic on roads after lockdown was further relaxed. This comes after offices in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) reopened after almost three months amid the Maharashtra government’s third phase of Mission Begin Again campaign.
Long queues of crawling vehicles were witnessed on the Eastern Express Highway, Western Express Highway, Eastern Freeway, main roads in the city and suburbs, besides inter-district roads, as people rushed to their offices, shops or commercial establishments.
