Thane's Kasarvadavali Flyover Closed for Inspection After Cracks Detected
The Kasarvadavali flyover on Ghodbunder Road in Thane, opened 14 months ago to ease traffic, has been closed from September 15 due to visible cracks and a hanging concrete slab near its joints. The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) initiated an inspection following a complaint and video evidence shared by a social activist. The closure will last until safety assessments and repairs are completed. Alternative routes have been arranged to manage traffic, with emergency vehicles exempted from restrictions.
