Pedestrians can't avoid the road, as the only other option they have is three times longer than this route

A 10-metre-long road that connects the business hub of Elphinstone Road to the nearest railway station has turned into nothing less than a stinking hell for pedestrians. With the city witnessing continuous rainfall for the past couple of days, those working at IndiaBulls Finance Centre and Naman Midtown have to wade through ankle-deep water full of garbage, and negotiate gaping potholes on their way to and from the station.
