Traffic congestion near the Chembur monorail station. FILE PIC

As part of the Station Area Traffic Improvement Scheme (SATIS), bus and taxi stands located beneath mono rail stations would be shifted 40-50 metres away from their current spots as the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) is of the opinion that the present set up is leading to traffic congestion and restricting public movement. Just like Thane, the scheme would be implemented along the Jacob Circle – Wadala monorail corridor, which is expected to be thrown open this year.
