Changing City: T-shaped flyover getting ready to de-congest Mith Chowky at Mumbai’s Malad
What is the significance of the project?
The Mith Chowky is a four-arm traffic junction, where the SV Road intersects the road going towards Madh Island. This junction is a primary connecting point in the western suburbs as all vehicles travelling towards Andheri and Bandra from Borivali, Dahisar and Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) pass through this road. Due to the heavy influx of vehicles, the junction has become a bottleneck and it takes 10-15 minutes to pass the 50-metre stretch of this island during peak hours.
