There's some good news for motorists who get stuck in traffic on the SCLR and BKC near Kurla. Motorists going from Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) towards the Western Express Highway (WEH) via the Santacruz-Chembur Link Road (SCLR), will be able to reach the highway in less than 15 minutes as MMRDA officials are confident of completing the BKC-WEH elevated road by January-February next year. During peak hours, CST Road, BKC Road and Kalina Road witness heavy traffic, which results in more congestion in BKC and the elevated road is expected to solve this problem.

The elevated road is also known as an extension to the existing SCLR and has been planned with the intention to decongest the traffic in Kurla West and near Kapadia junction. Work on the project started in the year 2017 and is nearing completion according to MMRDA officials. A senior MMRDA official said, "In the coming year Mumbaikars and motorists using the SCLR to and fro and those travelling between BKC and WEH will no longer have to get stuck in traffic at Kurla and BKC, as work on the elevated road is going on at a very fast pace. In the first quarter of 2019 the road will be opened for traffic if everything goes as per plan."
