Westrn Express Highway

The Western Express Highway is a north-south arterial road in Mumbai. It is stretching from the suburb of Bandra to Dahisar. The 25.33 km (15.74 mi) highway begins near the Mahim Creek and extends to the Dahisar toll booth in the northern limit of the city. Beyond the city limits, it continues as the Mumbai-Ahmedabad National Highway 8. The road serves the city of Mumbai to its suburbs, including the Sahar International Airport. There are several flyovers built over the Western Express Highway.The Andheri Flyover is one of the flyovers built over the Western Express Highway to avoid traffic lights for vehicles moving towards Vile Parle,Bandra and so on. Recently another project has been undertaken by the MSRDC(Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation, Undertaking of Govt. of maharashtra, India) to construct a flyover bridge from Vile Parle Onwards to avoid regular traffic jams that occur on the Highway. Sign Boards showing directions have been set up at major junctions of the highway.
