A dangerous traffic modification on the Western Express Highway near the Aarey Milk Colony flyover has raised safety concerns. At the spot where southbound vehicles descend from the flyover, a key barrier has been removed to enable vehicles to take an abrupt left turn from the carriageway of the 25.33-km highway onto the adjoining service road.
