Around 4.30 pm on Monday a container truck met with an accident near the Khandala exit on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway, blocking all the three lanes leading to Mumbai. The highway police had to rush to the spot and divert traffic via the old Mumbai-Pune highway.

Confirming the development, Superintendent of Highway, Amol Tambe, said, "The container truck bearing number MH-46-F 5350 was heading to Mumbai when the accident took place. Traffic on all the three lanes near the Khandala exit got affected. As it was raining heavily, the driver lost control of the truck and it turned turtle."
