Trimurti Marg at Mulund West is a broad, four-lane, tree-lined road with wide footpaths and apartments. Alongside this road are three schools, St Pius, St Mary's Convent and a relatively new entrant, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar School. The tranquility of this road is broken in a jiffy, at the schools' opening and closing times. The place suddenly turns into a hub of honking, traffic jams and chaos."

"During the school opening and closing times, the road changes, as there are so many vehicles honking and kids moving around, that it becomes impossible to negotiate a small stretch. The autos, school buses, mini-vans, parents dropping kids in their vehicles and two-wheelers, all converge on the place at one time," a shopkeeper, Alex D'Souza said. A local resident, Ankit Savla, said that the three schools in one place make the area more chaotic. "Buses are parked throughout the day and night along the road, and it affects the privacy of residents too," he added.
