**Mumbai: Madam Cama Road Remains Closed Over 12 Days Following Water Pipeline Burst**

More than 12 days after a water pipeline burst on Madam Cama Road, opposite Mantralaya, the road remains closed to traffic. This prolonged closure has caused significant inconvenience to thousands of motorists, office-goers in the Nariman Point area, and visitors to the state secretariat.

The primary road continues to be blocked as repair work is underway to fix the damage caused by the burst pipeline.


**Timeline for Road Reopening**

According to Jaideep More, Assistant Municipal Commissioner in charge of ‘A’ ward, “It will take two to three more days for the road to open for traffic. It is a cement concrete road and curing work is underway.”

The repair work on the water pipeline was completed first, after which the cement concrete road was being restored. Since cement concrete roads require a curing period to strengthen, the reopening is taking longer than it might have with other materials.

Road curing is a process carried out on freshly placed concrete to enhance its strength and durability. “If it was an asphalt road, the resurfacing would have been faster,” Mr. More added.
