First it was the steep slope, and now it’s the grit meant to improve friction and the rumble strips on the Kora Kendra flyover that is making the newly inaugurated bridge accident-prone, according to commuters. The BMC has received criticism from users, particularly two-wheeler riders, within a week of its launch.

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation spread a layer of tiny stones and sand on the Borivli flyover for higher friction, after accidents on the flyover on Ghatkopar-Mankhurd Link Road because of its smoothness. However, the move backfired, as the commuters have complained about the ‘worn out’ road surface.
