Despite the MMRDA reportedly spending a whopping Rs 72 crore on the construction of King's Circle Flyover, it is dotted with uneven mounds of pothole-filling material. This greatly inconveniences four-wheelers and bikes as they attempt to drive on the 1.5-km-long bridge, which leads to traffic congestion.

According to a report by The Indian Express, slow traffic, haphazard application of pothole filling material in several patches and fresh potholes appearing as the material gets washed away are some major concerns.

Apart from motorbikes and cars, ambulances carrying critical patients to Sion hospital also have a harrowing time, while crossing the flyover.
