Overview

• Asphalting and geometric upgrades at Gaimukh Ghat are set to begin at 12:01 a.m. on August 8 and continue until 5 a.m. on August 11 under Panchal’s 15-day repair directive.
• Heavy vehicles will be banned on the Ghat stretch from August 8 through August 10 to allow uninterrupted repair operations.
• Detailed traffic advisories reroute trucks via Shirsat Phata–Parol–Akoli, Chinchoti–Kaman–Anjurphata and Kapurbawdi–Kasheli paths to ease flow in Mira-Bhayandar and Vasai-Virar.
• Emergency and essential service vehicles—including police, fire brigade, ambulances, green corridor and oxygen tankers—are exempt from the restrictions to maintain critical response.
• A joint coordination team drawn from Mira-Bhayandar and Thane municipal corporations, the Public Works Department and Traffic Police will oversee work progress and manage traffic.
