Mumbai: The traffic department has imposed a series of restrictions for Anant Chaturdashi. From noon on Monday till 6am on Tuesday, it will close off 49 roads to traffic, make another 55 one-way, ban parking on 95 stretches and bar heavy vehicles from 13 roads. To monitor mandal processions, it has mounted 218 CCTV cameras at different junctions.

"Control rooms have been set up at the five most crowded visarjan points of Girgaum Chowpatty, Shivaji Park, Juhu Chowpatty, Bandra S V Road and Powai. Additionally, a tower has been erected at Marve," said Dr B K Upadhyaya, joint commissioner, traffic police. Altogether, 37 watch towers, with public announcement systems, have been set up.

Traffic officials said special arrangements have been made this year at visarjan points to return lost kids and to provide medical aid. There will also be present 400 lifeguards at these places. "3,500 traffic cops and 7,500 volunteers will be out on the streets. We have roped in 156 cranes to tow away broken-down vehicles and will put 3,000 steel plates on beaches so that vehicles do not get stuck in the sand," said Upadhyaya.
