Most commuters heading to BKC have celebrated the Santacruz Chembur Link Road, but have simultaneously raged at the fact that the intervening distance between CST Road and MTNL junction is so blocked — due to the illegal scrap dealers there — that the time saved ultimately goes to waste. Well, rage no longer as the MMRDA has now decided to take on the task of giving a facelift to this arterial road at a price tag of Rs 30 crore.
