Its been 50 years of independence and I have seen that the situation of traffic jams are the same at Saki Naka and Jari Mari. I wonder what survey had the Shiv Sena Govt. done when they decided to built 55 flyovers. Were they blind to see these two spots. A flyover at Saki Naka junction was a must. And with Andheri - Kurla road growing phenomenally with new companies coming and shifting over here, traffic and the people who go to work here is tripled, but neither the Govt. nor RTO is ever concerned about it. From Saki Naka to Kamani is just about 15 minutes running, but any evening time it takes more than an hour. And such is the situation in that belt that even if an auto takes a U-turn, there will be a huge jam. Ideally, there should be atleast 8 traffic policemen patrolling in that belt at intervals round the clock.
today we left home at 8-15 a.m. and reached office at 11-30 a.m. We were stuck in the jam resulting from the bad state of the road at the airport junction. it is disgusting to be in such a state of affairs. the ministers and the Chirf Minisiter of Mumbai are bunch of people who continuously make a mockery of the people of mumbai and i am sure that they would be laughing at their plight. Mr. Thackerey whose party heads the BMC muct be laughing at seeing the pitiable situation of the people of Mumbai and i am sure he would be a happy person seeing the way his BMC is functioning. CONGRATULATIONS MR. THACKEREY AND MR. VILASRAO DESHMUKH.
YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT WESTERN EXPRESS HIGHWAY BUT OUR EASTERN EXPRESS HIGHWAY'S ARE MAINTAINED PROPERLY PARTICULARLY UPTO THANE. ALL PATH HOLES ETC DUE TO ENCROCHERS AND VEHICLES ARE PLYING OVERLEADED, BAD DRIVING ETC. EVEN IN OUR EASTERN EXPRESS HIGHWAYS SOME TRANSPORTER REMOVE ROAD DIVIDERS TO ESCAPE TRAFFIC SIGNALS. TRAFFIC POLICE SHOULD LOOK INTO IT AND FINED THEM SEVERELY.
It would have been wonderful had the President used the Mumbai roads during her impending visit to Mumbai. At least the State Government would have got its act toghether and we would have enjoyed pot hole free patches for a few days after her visit.
