Will a proposed new connector to the Bandra-Worli Sealink ease traffic chaos, or merely take it in a new direction?
MUMBAI: The state government believes a new connector will untangle some of the traffic snarls in this western suburb — but residents of Bandra Bandstand, and morning and evening walkers, who flock to the Bandstand promenade for its breezy calm, will have to brace for change.
The new connector, announced by chief minister Devendra Fadnavis on Monday, will be a 1.26-km road connecting the Bandra Fort at Bandstand to the sealink. "People face massive traffic on the way from the sealink to Bandra (West). So, providing an additional connector to the sealink near the Bandra Fort will help smoothen the traffic," said Fadnavis.
