MUMBAI: The Currey Road bridge has been closed for vehicles, beginning Saturday afternoon, for work on the the monorail.
The Currey Road flyover was closed for vehicular traffic on Saturday to facilitate the monorail work from Bharatmata Theatre junction, Parel (East), to Lower Parel station. Officials said the flyover might remain closed till the monorail work is over. However, they would look for other alternatives if too many traffic snarls are reported due to diversions, officials added.
On Saturday afternoon, the Mahadev Palav Marg was closed for vehicular traffic around 1.30pm between Bharatmata Junction and Shinte Master Chowk. The traffic was diverted from Ganacharya chowk to Arthur road naka junction, officials said.
“As it is a weekend, no traffic snarls were reported as there were fewer vehicles on the road. We will see how the arrangement works on Monday and if it does not lead to much inconvenience, the arrangement will continue to be in place till the monorail work culminates,” said an official from the Worli traffic outpost.
