Despite a Bombay High Court order making it mandatory for hawkers to maintain a distance of 150 metres from railway stations, vegetable vendors have taken over a lane opposite the western side of Borivli railway station. Due to the severity of the situation, three BEST bus routes had to be diverted from Bhaji Market Gully, the lane in question, congesting SV Road and surrounding areas.

The lane in question, known as Bhaji Market Gully, lies between the Borivli police station and metropolitan magistrate court on one side and a municipal market on the other. Cars and two-wheelers have been left with no other choice but to ply via LT Road, which is for one-way traffic. If a motorist misses a turn, they are left with no other option other than Chandavarkar Road as Bhaji Market Gully is always blocked by hawkers and vegetable vendors, which causes a severe traffic jam almost daily at the Chandavarkar Road junction.
