Heavy vehicles add to pothole woe in Kalyan

Mumbai | Monday | 23rd July, 2018

Summary:

This is especially on Umbarde road in Kalyan west which has an RTO center where heavy vehicles come for their fitness tests. "All heavy vehicles from Thane, Palghar, Kalyan come to this center for their passing test," says Jaywant Balaram Bhoir, corporator from ward number 1, Kalyan West. When contacted Sanjay Sasane, deputy RTO, Kalyan said that heavy vehicles from Thane are not allowed to come to this track. Apart from the apathy of civic authorities, movement of heavy vehicles on the roads of Kalyan has given birth to potholes. As such the fed up residents issued an ultimatum to the RTO to shift their inspection track for heavy vehicles elsewhere or face their wrath..
