South Mumbai is less congested with the creation of the Bandra Worli Sea Link. Auto rickshaws are strictly prohibited here. This allows for faster transport between people residing in the suburbs and corporate offices in South Mumbai. Traffic is a major problem in most areas. South Mumbai is one of the most diverse regions in India as it offers a variety of dining options ranging from 5-star hotels to street food. Its proximity to the coast has also made it a very important port for business.
