Nahar's Amrit Shakti is a tranquil residential complex coming up quite well in Powai, but the residents here are bogged down by their approach road called DP Rd No. 2. Only one side of the road is operational. The other side of the same road is dug for concretisation and hence the problem.
Last year, during the monsoon this road had become a mess with water stagnating and the numerous potholes adding to the woes of locals. To their relief, as a result public pressure and local media highlighting the BMC 'L' ward relented and started work to concretise this road. What is irking the locals is that eight months have elapsed and the work is not getting completed.
Speaking on the plight a local resident Goyal told PP, “With only one side of the road taking the traffic it is a mess in the peak hours. It takes me 30 to 40 minutes on this stretch daily and many a times I get late for office.”
When PP spoke to the local corporator Chitra Sangle she told, “No doubt it is taking longer for the work to get completed here. Along with concretisation the BMC is constructing storm water drainage and the problem is compounded with electricity and gas pipeline work going simultaneously. It is expected that the road work should be completed before monsoon.”
