Rumble Strips to Be Installed on Ghodbunder Road Signals
The government is trying to make roads safer in Thane.
They're putting in special bumps called rumble strips at five traffic lights on Ghodbunder Road.
These bumps are to help stop accidents.
If it works, they'll add more of them everywhere.
The city is also working with the police to find the best spots for these bumps.
They are following the rules to make sure the bumps are safe and easy to see.
This is to protect everyone on the road, especially near where traffic lights are.
Thane Municipal Commissioner ordered rumble strip installation on Ghodbunder Road.
The initiative aims to enhance road safety at five traffic signals initially.
This is a trial basis to curb accidents, especially involving heavy vehicles.
The Public Works Department and Traffic Police are identifying locations.
Success will lead to expansion of rumble strips across all signals.
