Mumbai has an urban crisis. The urban town planners of Mumbai have decided that Mumbai's 21 million citizens now need more flyovers for their cars instead of mass rapid transit systems which can transport such a huge population from one end of Mumbai to another. Truly the flyovers are for citizens with cars (the upper middle class and the higher class people). The rest of the Mumbai citizens are to fend for themselves when commuting.
These flyovers have created a monumental crisis which will take decades to sort out. The flyovers prevent any mass rapid transit systems like monorails being installed (the flyovers occupy all the available space).
Soon in another 3 years Mumbai will come to a screeching halt. The traffic situation will be like Bangkok in its heydays (4 hours to move from one place to another).
