Thane-CSMT Flyover: Master Plan to Ease Traffic Congestion on Mumbai Route
- •Mumbai and Thane areas face severe traffic congestion due to a rapid increase in vehicles, causing difficulties for commuters during peak hours.
- •A new flyover will be constructed parallel to the existing Shiv Flyover to alleviate traffic congestion on the Thane-CSMT route.
- •The current Shiv Flyover has three lanes, with one lane dedicated to vehicles heading towards CSMT, which is now insufficient for the growing traffic.
- •The new flyover will feature one lane towards Thane and two lanes for travel from Thane to CSMT, promising faster and more efficient commutes.
- •Abhijit Bangar, Additional Commissioner of Mumbai Municipal Corporation, confirmed that permissions are being sought from traffic police for the project.
Why It Matters: A new parallel flyover on the Thane-CSMT route aims to significantly reduce traffic congestion and travel time.
