Tripti Narula, a resident of Worli, agreed. "Last Sunday, I decided to take the Sea Link since I was running late for a movie. But it took me 45 minutes to cross the bridge," said Narula. Amar Chouwdhary said, "I was shocked to see the number of vehicles on the Sea Link on Sunday. But I enjoyed my drive since I don't get to stop on BWSL on other days." Jayant Mhaiskar, managing director, Mumbai Entry Point Ltd, said, "The traffic jam on the BWSL is because people from the suburbs come to the Worli seaface on Sundays. u00a0 Others want to enjoy the view and drive on the Sea Link."
