Summary:
Huge potholes and acute traffic snarls at Vyttila Junction and on roads leading to it have made commuting a nightmare for motorists and pedestrians. The bus operators complained that the traffic congestion was forcing trip cancellations besides causing additional maintenance expenses. “The emergence of vehicles to the highway from service roads is literally bringing traffic to a standstill. Though we had approached the authorities with the request to undertake road maintenance works before the onset of monsoon, it had gone unheeded,” said Mr.
Suneer. With the onset of monsoon, large potholes have formed along the roads at the junction reducing the traffic to snail’s pace and authorities have turned a blind eye to the need for urgent maintenance works, said K.B..
