This is a traffic alert for all commuters heading towards Dahisar. The Western Express Highway is currently facing a massive traffic jam, with vehicles crawling at a very slow pace. The situation has worsened due to peak-hour congestion and ongoing roadwork in a few stretches. If you’re planning to travel by road, be prepared for long delays and bumper-to-bumper movement. Motorists are being advised to avoid the route for now and instead use public transport options like the metro or local train, which are running smoothly. Traffic police are on the spot trying to manage the flow, but heavy buildup continues from Borivali towards Dahisar. Stay patient, plan your route wisely, and keep following Bharat Alerts for continuous live traffic updates from across Mumbai.

What Mumbai, Delhi train passengers need to know about platform ticket sale pause ahead of Diwali.

The sale of platform tickets was halted at New Delhi, Old Delhi, Hazrat Nizamuddin, Anand Vihar, and Ghaziabad by the Northern Railway. It has been instructed that people accompanying senior citizens, differently-abled, illiterate, or lady passengers are to be excused. A similar precaution is in place at Mumbai CSMT and Bandra Terminus as well.

Platform tickets will be unavailable from October 15 to 28, 2025, at the said stations so that the risk of overcrowding can be avoided. With the festivals of Diwali and Chhath approaching, the Northern Railway is expecting heavy footfall in New Delhi

Be ready to pay charges if you enter and exit BKC within 50 minutes!

The MMRDA is planning a congestion fee to stop vehicles from using Bandra-Kurla Complex as a shortcut — a move that could make BKC the first area in India to introduce such a system.

The plan was recently discussed with Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, who also heads the MMRDA.

BKC, home to projects like the bullet train, metro rails, and global giants like Apple and Tesla, sees nearly 2 lakh workers and 4 lakh visitors daily.

Officials may use Fastag scanners and cameras to track vehicles automatically.

Chaos at Nariman Point Metro Station — long queues at security and bag scans are causing major delays during office hours.

Commuters heading towards CST faced heavy crowds, while many reported metro app glitches — tickets failing even after payment. One passenger had to share GPay details manually for a refund, with no proper Wi-Fi inside the station.

On Day One itself — broken, wet, and soapy stairs added to the mess.

A commuter who took the metro from the airport said it took 45 minutes till Mahalaxmi — trains mostly empty — but from Mahalaxmi to Cuffe Parade, the ride took just 16 minutes and 39 seconds.

Teething troubles remain, but Mumbai’s new metro line shows real promise.
