While the DN Nagar-Dahisar Metro's construction is on in full swing, it is coming at the cost of the roads and struggles for motorists on the New Link Road between Adarsh Nagar and Oshiwara. Motorists have demanded that the MMRDA (Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority) constructing the Metros repair the roads.
The construction of the Metro line 2A has been going on for two years and a majority of the work, including the launching of girders, is done. The median on the road was removed when the construction began. As the constructing authority of the Metro, the MMRDA is also responsible for the upkeep of the road. Residents of Andheri West have claimed that the condition of the road between Adarsh Nagar and Goregaon has deteriorated, with there being uneven patches and the two-lane road is reduced to just one lane. The conditions get worse especially after just a few showers during the monsoon.
