It may be noted that the right side lane of the 650-meter long 4-lane Rajnoli flyover, once completed, will make the Kalyan-Bhiwandi road rid of the traffic chaos which many a time caused road rages. It will also help vehicle owners save time and fuel.

"The work of this flyover was delayed due to financial problems of earlier agency, M/s.Supreme. Finally, MMRDA cancelled that contract and awarded to other agency, M/s.PS Infra in January 2019. Since then the work is being done on a war footing." stated MMRDA press release.
