Excavation work for laying sewerage/ gas pipelines has been in progress at different locations. However on completion of the said work, the excavated mud is not being cleared at the appropriate time. Such a tendency ultimately creates inconvenience for travellers and pedestrians alike.
In Ponda we come across such instances at different spots. One such instance is adjacent to the premises of Ponda Municipal Council (PMC) and another near Dr. Gaunekar’s clinic in the vicinity of old bus-stand.
Similar case has also been noticed along the stretch of road from Ganganath Shopee towards Almeida High School.
It is absolutely necessary for the concerned authorities to clear the existing mud from roads/ footpaths at the earliest so that travellers and pedestrians are provided necessary relief while proceeding along above routes.
Seen in the picture is the mud occupying the road/footpath near Dr. Gaunekar’s clinic. Let us hope that the concerned authorities initiate prompt positive action in public interest.
