The civic body has removed part of the divider on the busy Lady Jamshed Ji road to make way for the new special AC buses to Siddhivinayak temple from Kohinoor parking lot. Locals, however, are not too happy with the move as it may lead to further traffic chaos at the junction, they believe. The bus, which was supposed to begin operations from Sunday, has been delayed due to some technical issues.

BMC got Kohinoor parking lot has a vehicle capacity of 1,007 vehicles. In order to ensure optimum utilisation of the public parking lot, the civic body recently decided to start an AC bus between Kohinoor and Siddhivinayak temple. For its smooth ride through the area, the ward office removed part of the divider in front of Sena Bhavan on L J road. "It will not only help the AC bus but the vehicles driving towards the PPL also get better access," said an official from G North ward.
