The Mumbai Traffic Police has announced a handful of permanent road restrictions around Mumbai Port Trust (MbPT) and Orange Gate Junction. This is due to the development of Marina Bay which has caused traffic congestion at key locations.
A statement issued by the traffic police read - “All vehicular traffic plying from Eastern Freeway's down ramp and MbPT Road via Wadala going towards P D'Mello Road as well as all vehicular traffic plying from Wadi Bunder Junction, P D'Mello Road, going towards Wadala via MbPT Road under the Freeway at Orange Gate Junction is permanently closed.”

Similarly, vehicular traffic plying from Wadi Bunder junction, P D'Mello Road, can take a right turn at Kaklij junction to go towards Wadala or Eastern Freeway's Up ramp via MbPT Road,” the statement went on to say.
Mumbai’s Marina Bay project is inspired by Singapore’s iconic spot of the same name and has been in development since 2019. When finished, this area will include a park as well as public entertainment facilities.
