Goregaon's Veer Savarkar flyover, a three-lane stretch, which is a blessing in this space-starved, (traffic) jammed city, was opened for the public by the civic body last morning. But it appears to be a slipshod, hurried job, as there are no dividers between these lanes. A supposed solution to the problem of traffic snarls at the MTNL junction, it has now worried motorists about accidents in the absence of proper demarcation between the lanes.

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) took about three years to complete work on the 460-metre long stretch. And it's divider-less three lanes have come under much criticism, as many fear a head-on collision, especially during the peak-hour chaos, is just around the corner. Opening of flyovers in haste and their rough resurfacing are a couple of things the BMC has always faced flak for.
