The Thane City Police has issued a traffic advisory in connection with ongoing five-way bridge construction work on the service road connecting Cadbury Junction to Nitin Junction in Thane, which will be in effect until 30 April.

Barricades have been placed on the service road to facilitate the work, which has reportedly led to congestion in the area. The following are the details of the traffic advisory:

• Dharamvir Cut Service Road has been closed for buses, heavy goods vehicles and other vehicles heading towards Tin Hat Naka Junction. Vehicles that earlier used this route will now have to divert via the Nashik–Mumbai Highway slip road and proceed towards their destination through Tin Hat Naka Junction.
• In addition, vehicles coming from Vasudev Balwant Phadke (Bhakti Mandir) Marg towards Savans Road will not be allowed to take a left turn onto the service road.
• Vehicles approaching from Modi Hyundai Cut and HDFC Cut will also be barred from taking a left turn onto the service road.
• Motorists travelling from these points will instead be required to take a right turn and continue towards their destination via Dharamvir Cut, as per the alternative route suggested by the traffic department.
• The advisory will not apply to emergency and essential service vehicles, including ambulances, fire brigade vehicles, police vehicles and other authorised emergency services.
