The ongoing construction work on the Goregaon-Mulund Link Road (GMLR) has led two severe congestion at the Dr Keshav Baliram Hedgewar Chowk, also known as Mulund Junction, causing inconvenience to commuters and residents in the area. The situation is worsened by various factors such as illegal parking, dumping of debris due to the construction work on the Goregaon-Mulund Link Road, garbage dumping, ongoing Metro construction on Lal Bahadur Shastri (LBS) Marg, and the presence of illegal hawkers along the stretch.
"The construction work on the GMLR, aimed at improving connectivity between the two areas, has been a long-standing project. However, the lack of proper planning and coordination has resulted in chaos at the Mulund Junction. The narrow lanes and congestion have made the area prone to traffic jams, raising concerns," said a resident on condition of anonymity.
