I too am desperately waiting for an official notification for Mumbai/Pune/Maharashtra. However, from yesterday's news it appears that the MH Govt. is looking forward to lift the restrictions following recent directives from central govt. I am driving to Lonavala today from Mumbai, will update on the epass. |

Epass is still required in Maharashtra unless you are travelling within the MMR. MMR comprises of these areas - Mumbai city, suburbs, Vasai-Virar, Palghar, Thane, Kalyan, Navi Mumbai, Panvel, Alibag and some areas in Raigad district. I believe Mumbai Police is still keeping things in ambiguity to discourage people from travelling unnecessarily. They are probably waiting for Ganpati to get over and then they can take a final call. | |

(And of course the RWAs will be the last to revoke restrictions, pretty sure that even after a vaccine arrives and 90% of the population gets a shot, somewhere in the year 2030 there will be a couple of apartment buildings in one corner of some city where the RWA will continue to ban the entry of non-residents and keep spraying bleach! ![]() | |

BHPian ![]() | ![]() Hello everyone, I hope you all and your ladies on wheels are fit and fine. My mom's 50th birthday is coming up in 3 days, and like us all, she wants to go somewhere. I am from Dombivali, Thane (MH). I had picked Daman Diu/Malshej/Mahabaleshwar or other areas within the 250 km radius so that I can leave early morning and return by late evening by the latest. (with family of three and in a car) Am I allowed to travel or do I need an e-pass? If yes, what reason should I give so that it doesn't get rejected? |

Passes applied under "Medical emergency" or "stranded individual" generally get approval early but you will need valid, supporting documents to prove(and upload) it. Edit: Just received info that they were stopping vehicles from MMR side at the beginning of Malshej ghat till a few weeks ago Last edited by alokn87 : 28th August 2020 at 08:39. | |

| ![]() My brother travelled from Puducherry to Chennai on Monday with a valid TN ePass. He was not stopped and asked for ePass enroute. Though TN govt still maintains that ePass is mandatory, it has already become diluted and its a matter of time before they remove it. |

| ![]() Has anyone travelled from mumbai to pune in the past day or two? I'm planning on going to Mumbai from Pune for the weekend tomorrow, and come back by Sunday. I'm not sure about the ePass. I had travelled to Lonavala last Sunday, and there were no checkposts, although it comes under Pune district only. Can anyone please update, it'll be a big help. |

| ![]() I just came back from a same day round trip between Bangalore and Chennai. I applied for TN E Pass yesterday and it was approved within few minutes. I left Bangalore at 4 AM and in the entire journey I was not stopped even once to show the pass. Only the barricades which they had put up earlier to stop the vehicles seem to be still there without anyone guarding them. So I think there is no longer any need for E pass to travel between states and at this rate the mods may close this thread in the next few days as it will no longer be relevant ![]() Another thing I noticed is traffic. It was insane! Chennai city traffic seemed to be near its pre covid levels when I entered Tambaram at 9AM. Bangalore was at next level. Especially due to some major work being undertaken on the Electronic city elevated expressway, I was stuck above it for nearly 1 hour ![]() |
