The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has installed digital signboards in Andheri East to keep motorists updated about the Andheri subway status during the rainy season to avoid traffic jams near the subway. Now the demand is mounting to install such signboards also in Andheri West. The subway that runs under western railway tracks near Andheri station remains closed often during the monsoon. The subway was closed 21 times between July and September in 2023 due to flooding. Such flooding is expected this year and various solutions including nullah widening and high-capacity pumps proved ineffective to prevent the subway going under water.

Minoo Sukhia, a regular commuter on this route, said that one of the signboards located at Nagardas Road junction which leads to the subway has been made active. Sukhia said the signboard comes very handy for those who are travelling from East to West. With prior knowledge motorists do not enter the lane and thus don’t get stuck in the traffic jam near the entrance of the subway. The digital signboard also displays the time and temperature. The signboard installed last year was closed for many months, but has been activated again.
