The Old market-KTC bus stand road was flooded near the Chapel area, with the waterlogged on one side on the four-lane road.
Water logging was reported from several other areas in the city, including the station road.
Margao Municipal officials pointed out that the civic body would attend to the areas, wherever water had accumulated during the first rains.
