Summary:
Another resident, Vivek Andhale, said that had the road been widened, there would have been little chance of a head-on collision between two cars. More clarity on the matter is expected during the next hearing of the case, during which the court may take a final decision on widening the highway. “The entire highway till Sinnnar and even ahead has been widened, but this stretch has been left as it is for years together. We have seen many people getting killed or sustaining severe injuries due to accidents on this stretch,” he said.Others expressed their anger against people who have objected to trees being chopped for widening the road. Highway officials, however, said they were not aware about the findings of the report..
