The Mumbai Traffic Police on Wednesday morning temporarily stopped the vehicular traffic on the northbound stretch of the newly constructed flyover at Ghatkopar-Mankhurd Link Road (GMLR) for carrying out repair work.
The repairs were undertaken after multiple complaints were received about incidents of motorbikes skidding on the bridge during the rain, raising questions about the quality of construction.
Kishore Shinde, senior inspector of the Mankhurd traffic police division confirmed that the repair work will be underway for a few hours. The traffic coming from south Mumbai and moving towards north Mumbai or Vashi is being diverted from below the bridge. The repairs were also undertaken on Tuesday.
