The BMC will now avoid random road digging for concreting and will instead use a 'junction to junction' approach to ease traffic congestion.

MUMBAI: The decision comes after the BMC acknowledged complaints from over 100 active Advanced Locality Management (ALMs) in H West Ward, expressing concerns about the disruptive impact of haphazard road digging for cement concreting.

Abhijit Bangar, additional municipal commissioner (projects), has also given strict instructions that if the works are not completed by May 31, no new excavation will be carried out. "The roadworks should be undertaken within the prescribed timeframe and as per quality. Delays will not be tolerated. Barricading should be done properly while roadwork is in progress, so that more roads are open for traffic," said Bangar, who paid a surprise visit on Thursday night to Ramchandra Nagar Marg and Model Town Marg in Andheri.
