An oil spill from a tanker on Saturday resulted in disruption of vehicular traffic along Mumbai-Pune expressway, causing inconvenience for commuters.

The traffic was halted after a Mumbai-bound tanker overturned, spilling oil near Khandala during early hours on Saturday, making it risky for the commuters.

"The traffic was restored in the afternoon after putting a layer of loose earth on the affected surface," police said.
