Municipal Corporation Of Delhi — Roads, potholes

Publicum

from Delhi, Delhi

Address:

New Delhi, Delhi, 110076

Mathura Road from Sarita Vihar to New Friends Colony and back, has deep and dangerous potholes. Two wheelers have to swerve suddenly to avoid the potholes or skid when they drive through them. Four wheelers risk ramming into other vehicles if they swerve to avoid the potholes or risk damaging their axle if they cannot. The monsoons are long over and it is high time the MCD repairs the roads properly, not by putting bricks and stones in the potholes. The road in front of Central Road Research Institute is particularly bad. There was big hype some years ago when MCD acquired road milling equipment which could scrape asphalt and repair the road within a few hours. Where have those machines gone and why are they not being used? How do we call ourselves the capital city of India when we can't even boast of good roads?

Updated by Publicum Sarita Vihar is an upmarket residential colony of South Delhi. It has only one main entrance into the colony, that is from Mathura Road, at the traffic light of Sarita Vihar Metro Station. The only landmark for first time visitors to find the entrance is turn left at the traffic light and at the Garbage Dalao turn into the white gate. Is this how we welcome visitors into the colony? The dalao is always stinking and garbage spills onto the road. Cows and dogs eat the garbage, adding to the mess. Cars can barely cross this point to enter the colony because the garbage has spread across half the road. Why does the MCD not shift the dalao to a recess nearby? Why have unauthorised construction of shops, flats and bike repairs shops been allowed to build on the main road, reducing the width of the road further?

Updated by Publicum Here are some photos of the entrance to Sarita Vihar from Mathura Road, with the garbage dhalao in the forefront. It is a shame that such a decent colony in South Delhi should have a frontage of a garbage dump at the main entrance, instead of a Welcome to Sarita Vihar installation on Mathura Road which could be well lit. I hope MCD removes the garbag dhalo away from the entrance of Sarita VIhar.
