Thane, September 21, 2026: In a major crackdown against public encroachment and illegal parking, the Mumbra Traffic Division executed a drive targeting auto garages and servicing units operating on public roads between Shimla Park and Y-Junction.

Led by Senior Police Inspector Atul Aher, the operation resulted in notices being issued to nine garages, while three non-compliant shops were sealed for persistent rule violations.

Action against road encroachments

The action follows widespread complaints regarding two-wheelers parked on public thoroughfares for repairs and servicing, which severely hampered smooth vehicular movement. The persistent encroachment led to severe traffic bottlenecks in the area, creating daily hassles for both commuters and pedestrians.

Emphasising a zero-tolerance policy against unauthorised road occupancy, the Mumbra Traffic Division stated that similar enforcement drives will continue in the coming days to maintain order and ensure uninterrupted traffic flow across the jurisdiction.
