MARGAO
Residents of Nagmodem in Navelim village as well as motorists using the road have demanded the immediate restoration of the road dug up by the PWD, sewerage department for the laying of underground sewerage line.
Agitated residents pointed out that the road in question, which is connected to Margao STP road, is not only in bad shape, but has been washed away at certain stretches. In fact, they pointed out that the road has turned unmotorable and accident prone, and have urged the PWD to take steps for the immediate restoration of the excavated road.
A resident demanded to know for how long should the residents wait for the PWD to restore the damaged road when it’s now months since the underground line was laid by the PWD. “The road is really in bad shape. The road does not at all exist at certain stretches”, a resident pointed out.
Making matters worse for the beleaguered residents is the fact that the loose soil and metal is now a cause for air pollution. “Since there’s no road worth its name on the stretch, it has turned dusty and is a cause for air pollution: , remarked a resident.
