The affected section of the highway, between Chainage No. 61/650 and 61/680, is located in the Tamhini Ghat forest area. Repair work is currently in progress, and safety measures are being put in place.

However, due to the ongoing heavy rains and the risk of further damage, keeping the road open could be dangerous. Additionally, with high tourist traffic expected on weekends in the Tamhini Ghat area, the closure of National Highway 753F is necessary for safety reasons.
