Massive delays caused by metro work, mishap results in chaos in Kalyan

A school bus stuck in traffic
The impact of Metro construction and the breakdown of a heavy vehicle on Kalyan-Shilphata Road caused not only a traffic jam on the road but also disrupted school operations on Wednesday. The construction work has led to frequent and prolonged traffic jams, significantly disrupting the daily lives of citizens who commute through this route.
Unfortunately, Vidya Niketan school has borne the brunt of these disruptions. The traffic congestion caused by the construction has been so severe that the school had to make the difficult decision to stop its afternoon session. This decision was necessitated because the school buses were unable to return on time to pick up children from the morning session due to the gridlock caused by the traffic jams.
