The Igatpuri tunnel on Maharashtra’s Samruddhi Expressway will be closed for an hour on Thursday, affecting traffic flow.
Maharashtra’s flagship Samruddhi Expressway will see a temporary shutdown of the Igatpuri tunnel on Thursday. The closure is expected to last approximately one hour, according to the latest traffic update from Mid‑Day.
Authorities have advised commuters to plan alternate routes or adjust travel times to avoid congestion during the brief interruption. The tunnel is a critical link on the expressway, and even a short shutdown can cause delays for vehicles traveling between Mumbai and Nashik.
Motorists are urged to stay tuned to official traffic bulletins for real‑time information and to follow any on‑site signage once the tunnel reopens.
