Concrete dividers at the beginning of the Ghatkopar-Mankhurd Link Road (GMLR) flyover appear to have become a cause for accidents. According to sources, there have been three incidents in the past five days where cars rammed into the dividers. Officials working on the ground said that the blocks must be modified or removed before they lead to a fatality. While authorities working on the ground are observing the trend, the accidents are not being officially reported.
Senior Police Inspector Rajesh Kevle of Deonar police told mid-day, “Many incidents at the start of the flyover where cars are colliding with the concrete blocks are not being reported as the drivers are at fault for speeding, and the incidents involve a single vehicle colliding with the divider, as opposed to two vehicles colliding with each other.”
