Nearly 10 years after the BMC adopted the concept of highway toilets in the city, it has decided to build four more loos along the Eastern Express Highway between Nahur and Vikhroli. 

The civic body’s S ward has invited tenders for the toilets, 2 each on either side of the busy road. The facilities will cost the corporation Rs 86.2 lakh. The southbound arm—towards Mumbai—of the arterial road now has just one such toilet at Ghatkopar, while there are two lavatories at Ghatkopar and Vikhroli along the northbound lane. The facilities are expected to be ready in 5-6 months, said officials.
