Heavy traffic and jams continue to hassle commuters in the western suburbs as the BMC on Monday night shut another important connector at SV Road over the Oshiwara nullah in Jogeshwari. The bridge connects Jogeshwari to Goregaon and further the northern suburbs. Commuters will now be diverted on to Link road, which is already a traffic nightmare owing to the Metro Line IIA (Dahisar to DN Nagar) construction work.

The civic body had earlier shut the bridge near the Guzderbandh junction on Juhu Tara Road. An alternative road through the SNDT College campus has, however, been thrown open here for vehicular traffic now from 7 am to 7 pm.
