Signal system is often off
Due to the negligence of the municipal administration, the people are also facing the brunt of the closure of the signal system at the major crossings. Emergency services, ambulances etc. are also compelled to walk by crawling due to the heavy traffic jam. The residents of the city allege that the Municipal Administration and the Traffic Department are not serious at all to resolve the horrific traffic jams in the city.

Traffic workers seem to be more interested in making less money in clearing the jams. Even the municipal administration is not taking any necessary steps to solve the problem of traffic jam.
The proverb of two and a half years, which lasted for nine days, is being realized
Due to the heavy traffic jam in Bhiwandi, the proverb of eight and a half days, which lasted for nine days, is being realized. It is common to take one to two hours to cover a distance of about 1 kilometer from Anjur Phata to Dhamankar Naka and from Kalyan Naka to Banjar Patti Naka. Similarly, people are losing sweat in covering the distance from Mandai to Zakat Naka. Due to the jam, heavy pollution in the city and the drivers have to bear the waste of time including economic loss. Sometimes traffic personnel are seen standing on the main roads of the city. Traffic personnel are seen more busy in collecting fines and filling pockets than in jam diagnosis.
No action is being taken on vehicles parked on the side of the road
Vehicles parked near the Bhiwandi court also contribute to the jam. The traffic department does not take any action on the vehicles parked on the side of the road, due to which the spirits of the people are raised. Due to the jam, it has become very difficult for people to reach home safely on time. Even after the closure of schools and colleges due to Corona infection, there has been displeasure among the people regarding the functioning of the government due to the heavy traffic jam in the city. In the above context, a municipal official said that it will take about 2 to 3 months to repair the flyover, till then the jam will have to be faced.
