Mohammadwadi-NIBM link road closure leads to chaos on alternate roads
Hindustan TimesThe Pune Municipal Corporation’s decision to divert the NIBM to Mohammadwadi vehicular traffic via two alternate roads has backfired, as massive traffic congestion was reported on the alternate roads which are in bad condition for the past five years. The PMC must complete the digging work at the slope within one month and employ double the machinery and labour to ensure that the work does not drag for months together.” Daljeet Goraya, director, NIBM Annexe Residents Forum said, “In the past two months, the slope reduction work has considerably slowed down. Now, the PMC has closed the slope road for traffic and diverted vehicular traffic to two alternate roads, both of which are in extremely bad condition and not fit for commuting. PMC road department has been very unprofessional in its conduct in Mohammadwadi and citizens’ lives are in danger due to the inept and inefficient functioning of the PMC administration.” Former Corporator Nanda Lonkar when contacted said, “I have met the PMC commissioner and told him clearly that we need at least one side of the slope road functioning as the entire traffic scenario in the area is chaotic.
