Mumbai Traffic Police — severe traffic jam and poor traffic management at signal located at elphinstone road lower parel

Address:

Mumbai City, Maharashtra, 400013

The way the traffic handled at the signal below india bulls finance centre towards elphinstone is terrible. I request the police authorities to look into it and manage the traffic. As the signal for people traveling from india bulls direction to elphinstone or lower parel lasts for approx 30-50 minutes. For a person traveling day to day basis, it is very inconvenient. Also, one can’t imagine to travel on this route in case of an emergency. As i travel everyday, i can very well say this that there is no fixed time for the signal and the signal is operated manually upon the discretion of the traffic operators. There are cars coming from four different directions and the authorities keep the signal and let the cars pass upon their whims and fancies.

This is a trouble i’m facing since 6 months. It creates a blockage for cars coming in from dadar area. We have to wait for minimum half an hour. And only 5 cars are allowed to leave at a time.

Why isn’t there better traffic management taking place, despite there been approx. 10 traffic police being present and guiding directions. The traffic accumulated at the signal is never given priority. Is it that difficult to know the importance of keeping that traffic moving. The traffic police struggle to keep the traffic moving. There appears no end to the woes. Requesting the police authorities and administrators to take notice and do something to alleviate the situation (Reduce the timing for the signal)
