The newly resurfaced smooth roads inside Aarey Milk Colony are posing a threat to the wildlife because motorists tend to speed on these stretches, thanks to the absent speed breakers. Traffic is being diverted to internal roads in the eco-sensitive area, as the BMC is concretising the main Aarey Milk Colony road in patches.

In order to prevent internal roads—which were in a bad shape—from getting congested, the civic body resurfaced them to facilitate seamless traffic movement. However, speed breakers that had been removed on several stretches have not been replaced.
