The Mumbai Port Trust is the Regional Transport Offices' (RTOs) last hope. Having run out of space to test the 'road-worthiness' of vehicles hitting the city's roads, the RTOs have sought dedicated space from the port trust for such tests, after futile attempts to get plots from The Willingdon Sports Club in Tardeo and the Kurla Dairy. The HC had directed all four city RTOs last October to conduct vehicle fitness tests on a 250-m-long track. But starved of space, RTOs are forced to perform such tests on public roads.
