Mumbai Traffic Police have announced extensive road closures, diversions and parking restrictions for the upcoming Shiv Sena Dussehra Melava at Shivaji Park in Dadar on October 20. Thousands of party members are expected to arrive from across Maharashtra, leading to congestion and potential traffic snarls on major routes.
Roads including Swatantryaveer Savarkar Road between Siddhivinayak Mandir and Kapad Bazar Junction in Mahim, as well as sections of Keluskar Road and M B Raut Marg, will be off-limits to vehicles. Alternative routes have been suggested, such as using L J Road, Gokhale Road and Steelman Junction to bypass restricted areas.
Parking will be limited on eight designated roads, with buses specifically instructed to use certain parking facilities near Senapati Bapat Road and Kamgar Ground in Elphinstone West. Designated parking areas have also been set up for arriving vehicles from the Western and Eastern Express Highways.
The traffic police have urged motorists to plan ahead, anticipate congestion and follow all posted instructions. Extra time is advised for travel through Dadar, Mahim and neighboring areas on October 20.
