Mumbai Traffic Police — traffic signal in front of salvation army, iob bank

Website:

RTO Commissioner

There is a signal just outisde the salvation army building & indian overseas bank in sion (East), mumbai - 22 which is never followed by the vehicles as they feel that no cameras are installed. We pedestrians find it too difficult to cross the road as the two wheelers are always in speed and they refused to stop even after seeing the red signal. Many accidents have taken place in the past at this particular spot but no action has ever been taken by the authorities or the police. The signal itself is of 20 seconds only and the crossing is too long. As such it takes 2 signals for crossing. There is a school & old age home (Inside manav seva sangh). All find it too difficult to cross the road.

The problem has multiplied now as the rods attached on the either side of the area covering the compound for crossing just below the flyover have been removed completely and not only two-wheelers but even four wheelers are crossing & taking u-turns from that spot which is only meant for pedestrian crossing.

Kindly look into the matter at the earliest and help in avoiding future accidents.

Thanks
