Bandra Worli Sea Link : View from my window

Quick update on the Bandra Worli Sea Link. On Monday as the toll kicked in on the link, Veer Savarkar Marg (Cadell Road) especially the bit near the Hinduja Hospital, leading into the narrow one way stretch that goes past Mahim Dargah and connects to Mahim causeway, saw traffic density come down drastically. I live on that road so I can vouch for it. That's some good news. But the Bandra Masjid junction is a snarl - something needs to be done here. And the Worli end is a nightmare.
But if traffic on the bridge rises to the 45,000 vehicles expected daily - things should be even better eventually for the older roads. News reports say on day one 30,000 vehicles passed through.
