The coming months bring good news for motorists who find themselves getting stuck on the Mumbai-Nashik highway stretch between Thane and Padgha. The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) plans to construct an elevated road to help in resolving traffic jams in a stretch that remains busy during rush hour in the mornings and evenings.
“This project will help in solving traffic jam issues in Kalyan and Dombivli. Motorists travelling from Kalyan, Dombivli, Thane and Bhiwandi stand to benefit. Once this road is connected to the Samruddhi Mahamarg (Mumbai-Nagpur Expressway), motorists heading out of the city can avail of the option of using this road,” said Public Works Minister Ravindra Chavan.
