Shankar Lane road is a very important road from the traffic point of view on the Western Express Highway, so it will also relieve the heavy traffic in this area.Therefore, the 357 constructions that will be involved in the widening of this shankar lane road will be removed by the Municipal Corporation, and therefore, the work of widening this road will start at a fast pace.Union Commerce Minister and North Mumbai MP Piyush Goyal also ordered senior officials to provide the affected people of North Mumbai with the proper houses they deserve and to take appropriate steps in this regard.
In Mumbai itself, the work of concreting various roads was going on before the monsoon. The intention of the Municipal Corporation administration was to complete all these works during the pre-monsoon period, but this year the rains arrived early.Due to the heavy rains in May itself, various road works that are usually carried out by the Municipal Corporation have been delayed this time. Therefore, the Municipal Corporation is currently facing a major challenge of completing the related works by making an accurate forecast of the rainfall.
