Dude, who took my road!. With BMC’s manic assault on the city’s roads under the guise of concreting, Mumbai resembles a war zone these days. Mumbaikars, already traumatised by the city’s traffic, pollution, heat and infrastructure work, are now faced with riskily navigating either mounds of rubble from the scraped up roads or strips of walkways that would require the dexterity of a ballet dancer.
