Tourist traffic jams on Siolim roads a nightmare

GREGORY E D'SOUZA, Siolim | 21st October, 07:38 pm

The Diwali vacation has already begun and Goa has experienced the start of tourist season although we are the only state which sells wholesale tourism 24 hours x 365 days. You can break rules and enjoy your stay. Our police and Ministers will entertain any violations because you are our guest. The traffic jams on Siolim roads will begin and are a nightmare for the locals residents. I suggest that our local MLA explore the possibility of the introduction of the Ro-Ro ferry service from Chopdem-Morjim to Vagator-Anjuna along the Chapora River or we can make another study on construction of bridge on the Chapora River from Chopdem-Morjim to Chapora-Vagator-Anjuna. This will considerably reduce the traffic of reckless driving tourists on MDR 10. Will the authorities think big out of the box about these two suggestions ? We need to do something as the illegal road widening will not help at all.
