Traffic resumed on the Mumbai-bound carriageway of the Pune-Mumbai Expressway after authorities cleared debris from the landslide-hit 'Missing Link' section. However, commuters have been advised to drive cautiously as heavy rainfall continues across Maharashtra. Meanwhile, the India Meteorological Department has issued an orange alert for Mumbai and neighbouring districts, prompting the closure of schools and colleges as a precautionary measure. Officials have warned of heavy to very heavy rainfall, waterlogging and possible landslides, urging residents to avoid unnecessary travel and follow official advisories. #MumbaiRains #PuneMumbaiExpressway #MumbaiExpressway #IMD #OrangeAlert #MaharashtraRains #Monsoon2026 #Mumbai #Pune #TrafficUpdate #SchoolClosure #HeavyRain #Landslide #TravelAlert #IndiaNews Thank you for watching our video!
