Road safety is set to take a turn for the better along the Eastern Express Highway (EEH) in Vikhroli, now that the traffic police have decided to close U-turns at Godrej Signal. This action comes on the heels of mid-day's report on this spot, which has witnessed as many as 29 road mishaps through 2017 until June 2018.
This paper's July 27 report ('Vikhroli's Straight, Long Killer stretch') was part of the Killer Road series, which covered the deadliest roads in the city. Even though this road is a straight stretch, sudden turns often lead to collisions with vehicles speeding along the highway. Adding to the confusion, the signals are kept on amber at night, so motorists are even less likely to maintain road safety.
