Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike [BBMP] — Road Repair - Frequent accidents occurring spot because of this

Address:

Sahakar Nagar Railway Underpass, Railway Parallel Road

To BBMP,

My name is Pooja J leaving in Jakkur, Bengaluru North.

This is regarding request to fix the road on urgent basis as regular accidents are happening because of this.

Location: Sahakar Nagar Railway underpass, Railway parallel road
(Near to GKVK or behind L&T rain tree apartment)

I would like to bring your notice that I had met with minor accident on 7th Sep at Sahakar Nagar Railway underpass in Railway parallel road due to obstruction of vehicle movement due to damaged metal bars. Barricades are kept to avoid this which is closing one full lane and both sides vehicles are diverted to only available lance.

This happened while I was coming back after dropping my son to nearby school and today, I saw a similar incident yesterday 12th Sep. One two-wheeler rider fell down while avoiding upcoming car in front of him. This is due to blind spot created by other vehicles and barricade kept at damaged road and is not visible those crossing the road.

Please repair this before some causality happens.
This underpass is used by many parents dropping their children to schools by two-wheeler.

I was taking right turn under the bridge and stopped to give way to Maruthi van carriying vegetable as there is down Maruthi van was approaching around 40-50kmph he came to right lane and rubbed my cars front bumper while avoiding barricade kept due to damaged road. I was waiting for him to pass and never expected he come so much towards right lane. My vehicle was in halt condition waiting for him to pass. Actually, this is not a mistake of both the vehicles and this incident had happened due to un repair metal bars and barricade that was there which wasn’t visible to vehicle taking right.

After seeing similar incident today 12th Sep morning, where two-wheeler rider fell down while avoiding barricade. I thought of writing this to BBMP and BTP about my incident and yesterdays incident. Because of the un repaired road and barricade vehicle movement get blocked and due to blocked visibility of barricade people meet accident.

I sincerely request concerned authorities to fix this before any causality happens. If both are 4wheeler it may go with minor dent or scratch but if this happens with two-wheeler young kids will be going to school with their parents and if they skid and fall it may cause irreparable loss.
