Traffic movement on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway was briefly disrupted on Monday morning after a propylene gas tanker crashed into a roadside barrier near the Amrutanjan Bridge.
According to Highway Police, the driver reportedly lost control of the vehicle—suspected to be due to brake failure-while descending a slope, causing the tanker to veer off course and collide with the crash barrier before coming to a halt. Authorities confirmed that no injuries were reported and there was no gas leakage, averting a potentially serious situation.
