The Western Express Highway (WEH) has been a source of frustration for commuters between Malad and Kandivali for nearly 24 months, with the Akurli subway widening project causing chaos and congestion on this busy stretch of road. The construction of new lanes and infrastructure has been a necessary but painful process, with the presence of barricades and roadblocks slowing traffic to a crawl. However, relief is finally on the horizon as the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) has announced plans to remove the obstacles ahead of the Ganpati festival and complete the project by October.
According to an MMRDA official, the primary objective of this project is to alleviate the chronic traffic congestion that has been plaguing the region.
Notably, three out of the five phases of the project have been completed and will now be operational, allowing for a seamless flow of traffic.
