Waterlogging Woes in Mumbai:
Some parts of Mumbai have already witnessed waterlogging, causing slower movement of vehicles on the roads. Despite claims from railway authorities that suburban trains are running on schedule, commuters have reported delays of around 10-15 minutes. The Andheri subway was closed for traffic due to waterlogging, leading to diversions on the Vile Parle bridge and Captain Gore Marg S.V road.
