Traffic Diversions in Mumbai Today

Mumbai, one of India's busiest metropolitan areas, is facing significant traffic diversions due to ongoing infrastructure projects and unforeseen disruptions. These changes are impacting daily commuters, requiring them to adapt their travel plans. Some of the major diversions in place are a result of roadworks, bridge repairs, and metro line constructions that have temporarily altered major routes throughout the city.
Key areas affected:
- Andheri to Borivali Link Road
- Western Express Highway near Kandivali
- Eastern Freeway to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport
In addition to these routes, local police and city authorities have implemented several temporary road closures and adjusted traffic signals to improve flow in affected regions. Commuters are advised to check real-time updates to avoid congested areas and explore alternate routes.
"Traffic management has become a priority for city planners. Adjustments in detours are temporary and expected to last for several months, depending on the pace of construction and repairs."

---|---|---|
Andheri-Borivali | 6 months | Link Road, Western Express Highway |
Eastern Freeway | 3 months | LBS Marg, Western Express Highway |
