Overview

• Guardian Minister Ashish Shelar ordered agencies to complete all repairs within three days and chaired a high-level review to coordinate the response.
• Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis instructed the BMC to speed up work, and officials said the civic body will fix potholes this year even on roads outside its jurisdiction.
• The BMC logged 11,525 complaints between June and August 22, including cases tied to other agencies, while Shelar separately cited about 8,000 complaints this year.
• Specific flyovers in Vakola, Vikhroli and Goregaon were prioritized for immediate repairs, with the BMC to step in if the MSRDC does not act promptly.
• Recent heavy rains worsened road conditions, prompting directives for rapid trench-filling and the installation of speed breakers and rumblers near high-traffic areas.
