The delegation, led by WRA Chairman Viren Shah, submitted a detailed representation outlining chronic traffic problems. Residents said Choudhary immediately directed his team to examine specific grievances raised during the meeting.
Key concerns included rampant wrong-side driving by two-wheeler riders beneath the Annie Besant Road flyover, where motorists often avoid the Samudra Mahal U-turn. Residents also flagged chaotic traffic conditions at the China Bistro junction and underbridge area, with motorcycles frequently travelling in opposite directions simultaneously.
The association raised concerns over signal violations and careless driving by BEST buses at the Samudra Mahal and Eden Hall junctions. Shared taxis on Ganpatrao Kadam Marg and the Worli Naka-Lower Parel route were also cited for indiscriminate stops, reckless driving and signal jumping.
Residents highlighted double parking, illegal truck and food-truck parking, inadequate signage and poor enforcement at key junctions. The WRA urged deployment of additional personnel, stricter enforcement, removal of encroachments and appointment of a nodal officer for Worli.
