Potholes have reappeared on the main roads of Mangalore causing inconvenience to commuters.
According to the city-based Nagarika Hitarakshana Samiti, this year too potholes have resurfaced at spots where they usually appear in the rainy season. The Mangalore City Corporation could have avoided them if it had taken steps before June. Spots in front of Dilkush Apartments at Bendoorwell, in front of Sanjeevini building on Falnir Road, near the City Hospital on Kadri Road, near Kairali restaurant on Attavar Main Road and at PVS circle, were prone to potholes every rainy season. They had resurfaced now, according to reliable sources.
The corporation could have laid interlinks at those places in summer. Such an experiment was made near Hampankatta Circle last year. As a result, there were no potholes this time.
Potholes appearing in spots such as inlets to storm water drains had been blocked. A case in point was the men in front of the T.M.A Pai International Convention Centre on M.G. Road where inlets to drains had been blocked. When contacted, Ganesh Hosabettu, Mayor said the corporation would make efforts to identify such spots and take preventive steps before the next rainy season.
