MUMBAI: Amid rising complaints from motorists about the closure of several toll gates on Bandra-Worli sealink leading to longer queues, and subsequent.
At a meeting with World Bank officials this week, the government said it plans to add 30,000 km of additional railway tracks by FY31, increase port capacity to 2,200 mtpa by 2030 from 1,617 mtpa last year, and expand the national highways network to 185,000 km by 2030, of which 75,000 km would be four-lane and above.
Regular commuters say while the toll gate was recently renovated with new technology to ensure that FASTag posted on the windshield of the vehicles are scanned faster, and vehicles can go past without lining in a queue, congestion at the plaza has only become worse.
