Two-wheeler riders commuting on Sahar Road in Andheri East have been struggling with an uneven stretch for the past two months, as ongoing construction has narrowed the carriageway near the D-Mart departmental store. With work underway on one side, the two-lane road has effectively been reduced, leading to traffic bottlenecks and frequent skidding incidents, commuters said. mid-day had earlier alerted the BMC about the issue, following which a temporary repair was carried out. However, riders say the patchwork has failed to provide any relief.
