Mumbai: The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) alongwith traffic police is gearing up to monitor water logging in the city by installing CCTVs at major traffic junctions in the metropolis. The civic administration has written to the traffic department asking for footage obtained from CCTVs that they have installed at major traffic junctions in the metropolis. "We have approached the traffic police and asked them to send us the video feeds so that we can monitor water logging and movement on the roads during the monsoon. With this, firstly we can be alert and prepare ourselves and secondly pass on the information to the people," joint municipal commissioner SS Shinde told PTI here. BMC has identified 249 water logging spots in the city, 55 of them are marked chronic including Milan subway, Andheri subway, Kalachowkie, Kurla and Dadar. "With the help of the footage, we can observe the situation from the control room and activate remedial measures. The feed from the traffic department can be of great help in de-flooding areas. By looking at the videos we will come to know which areas are flooded," Shinde said. "With this we will be updated on water logging and flooding and can pass on the same to people, so that they can avoid flooded routes," he said. An official at the traffic department said "we have 100 cameras at 100 junctions in the city, of which some of them cover flood-prone areas. We would provide video feeds to the civic body which would help them to know about water logging in areas."
