Meanwhile, BMC officials said the Coastal Road is closed for traffic during the night to complete work on the connector to the Bandra-Worli Sea Link. “Also, northbound traffic of the Coastal Road is closed on the weekend to complete work at that end. The administration will decide on the letter by the traffic police,” said a civic official.

“BMC is also trying to open one arm of the Coastal Road and Bandra Worli Sea-Link in the next 15 days. The southbound carriageway of the connector will be open. There is some minor work pending,” the official added. The Rs 14,000 crore Coastal Road project has a total length of 10.58 km. Currently, the road between Worli and Nariman Point is open. This is part of the most ambitious project in the Western part of Mumbai, which will connect Nariman Point to Dahisar, and further, Mira Bhayandar and Palghar district.
