The Dahisar to Andheri East elevated metro corridor will affect the traffic on the Western Express Highway

In what it claims is a move to simplify the lives of motorists, the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) will spend Rs 5 crore to purchase and install a traffic management system — including signage, reflectors, barricades and information boards — along the Western Express Highway and Link Road. The move is in anticipation of the congestion that is expected to happen when construction for the Dahisar to Andheri East Metro line and Dahisar to DN Nagar Metro corridor gets underway in full swing.
