Juhu Beach traffic curbs from Nov 15 for Chhath Puja

The two main approaches to Juhu Beach will close to regular vehicles from 2pm on November 15 as Chhath Puja arrangements begin.

Mumbai Traffic Police said the restrictions, under the Santacruz Traffic Division, will remain in place until 11am on November 16. Police and emergency vehicles are exempt.

The roads from Santacruz Police Station Junction to Juhu Beach and from Tulip Star Hotel Junction to Juhu Beach will be shut to vehicular traffic. Parking will be prohibited on both sides of Juhu Tara Road and along A B Nair Road, V M Road, Juhu Church Road and Birla Lane.

A B Nair Road traffic will run one way via Church Road towards Balraj Sahni Marg. The U-turn outside Hotel Maharaja Bhog will be closed; drivers heading to Juhu Koliwada through Tulip Star Hotel must instead turn around at Juhu Koliwada Junction.

Vehicles arriving from Link Road can turn right at Santacruz Police Station Junction, then left at Standard Chartered Bank Junction and continue on S V Road. Traffic from the Tulip Star Hotel side will be diverted through V M Road. Juhu Church Road and Alfredo Criado Road are alternate ways to reach N S Road No. 13.
