Vehicle Restrictions: Why 2-Wheelers and Autos Are Prohibited
Under statutory notifications issued by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) and Mumbai Traffic Police, two-wheelers, three-wheeler auto-rickshaws, bicycles, handcarts, and heavy goods commercial vehicles are strictly prohibited.
The 2.07 km undersea tunnels operate automated fire suppression and ventilation systems designed specifically for light motor vehicles and designated clean-fuel electric buses. Mixing slow 2-wheelers with 80 km/h traffic creates unacceptable collision risks in confined tunnel corridors.
Speed Camera Surveillance & Fine Schedule
Over 100 high-definition ANPR cameras monitor the Coastal Road 24 hours a day. Violations are processed instantly through the Mumbai Traffic Police automated e-challan system.
