Mumbai Witnesses Unexpected Traffic Chaos as Monsoon Rains Hit City Hard
Mumbai experienced severe traffic chaos on Tuesday as heavy monsoon rains flooded many key roads. The relentless downpour caused waterlogging in multiple parts of the city, leading to massive traffic jams and delayed public transportation.
Commuters struggled to reach their destinations on time as buses, cars, and two-wheelers moved at a snail’s pace. Several low-lying areas, including Andheri, Bandra, and Sion, reported significant water accumulation, making roads impassable. The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) deployed additional pumps and drainage teams to clear the waterlogged streets.
Traffic police worked tirelessly to manage the situation and redirect traffic to safer routes. Despite their efforts, several accidents occurred due to slippery roads and low visibility. Authorities have urged people to avoid unnecessary travel until conditions improve.
The Meteorological Department forecasts continued heavy rain in the coming days, warning residents to stay cautious. The ongoing monsoon season has consistently caused challenges in Mumbai’s infrastructure, highlighting the need for better drainage systems.
