Damaged drain slabs pose risk to motorists in Bengaluru
Bengaluru: Damaged concrete slabs covering a drain on the road connecting Vasanth Nagar to Nandi Durga Road near the Cantonment railway underbridge are posing a threat to motorists. The High Grounds traffic police alerted BBMP officials about the issue on Wednesday, requesting immediate repairs.
While BBMP engineers initially promised to address the problem on Thursday, they were unable to proceed due to the unavailability of new slabs.
According to a traffic police officer, the engineers are expected to resolve the issue by Friday. The damaged slabs have been affecting the road for several weeks, with one slab moving dangerously when vehicles pass over it, according to Siddique, a local autorickshaw driver.
