With the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) delaying the opening of the flyover on Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Road between Sion and Dadar, Mumbaikars began and ended their Monday amid traffic chaos. Upset motorists took to social media to vent their anger.

A senior MSRDC official said, "It is true that we were going to open the flyover on Monday morning, but there was a delay due to some technical issues during the repair work. The flyover will be opened to traffic on Tuesday morning. We apologise for the inconvenience motorists have had to face."
