Those travelling to Pune, Goa told to take alternate route via Uran Phata

Hindustan Times  

MUMBAI/ NAVI MUMBAI/PUNE: The promise of a long weekend getaway turned into a nightmare for Mumbai and Pune residents, many of whom spent several hours on the road stuck in traffic snarls. Commuters faced at least 30-minute delays as traffic moved slowly on both the Mumbai Pune expressway as well as the Mumbai Nashik highway. The Navi Mumbai traffic police have asked travellers to take a signal-free route that passes via Uran Phata to join the Mumbai-Pune Expressway — the route to Pune and Goa, as well as other popular weekend destinations like Alibag and Lonavla — instead of the Sion-Panvel highway, which connects Belapur to Kalamboli junction. “In the alternative route suggested by the traffic department, motorists coming via the Sion-Panvel highway will have to take a left to Amra Marg, Nerul and then travel to NMMC headquarters, Belapur, proceed on Ulwe road to D-Point and take the exit to Kalamboli,” a senior traffic official from the Belapur unit explained.
