Mumbai-Pune Expressway jam of 2-3km near Khalapur ahead of Ganeshotsav
India
Heading to Konkan for Ganeshotsav?
You weren't alone: vehicles caused a massive two- to three-kilometer traffic jam near the Khalapur toll plaza on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway.
With cars barely moving, many people took a U-turn at Khopoli and followed alternative routes suggested by Raigad Police to beat the gridlock.
Drivers use Khopoli-Pen, police advise Pali-Vile-Nizampur
Drivers switched to roads like Khopoli-Pen and Pali Phata, which link up with the Mumbai-Goa Highway.
Police also recommended other detours through Pali-Vile-Nizampur-Raigad Road-Mahad or Pali-Vile-Nizampur-Mangaon to help everyone reach their celebrations faster.
All this rush is for Ganesh Chaturthi, a joyful festival honoring Lord Ganesha.
