Barricade on Township Artery


The widest thoroughfare Broadway in the middle of Salt Lake is barricaded for a week following two cave-ins in quick succession.The mayoral council member in charge of roads at the municipality said " Our municipality does not have the money to spend on relaying a particular stretch again and again.We will wait for 2 or 3 days,if there is no further cave in , we will relay the stretch with bitumen".

There was leak in the underground water pipe.The Calcutta metropolitan development Authority repaired the leak and covered the stretch with sand and soil.When we asked a CMC engineer "what are their further development plans for the cave-ins"He said " Considering the number of cave-ins we face in a year because of leaks in water pipe,traffic movement will be paralyzed if we follow the Saltlake municipality model".
