Udupi, Jul 15: While the four-lane work on the national highway from Surathkal to Kundapur is nearing completion, the locals are already wondering how long it would last.
The surface of the recently completed four-lane road that has been opened for traffic has already started peeling off. It is not known if it is due to heavy rain or the inferior quality of work.
The traffic problems that existed in Brahmavar prior to the project are likely to reappear. Along with the earlier chaos in Brahmavar bus stand and Akashvani, new problems are troubling the commuters.
The national highway road near SMS College is also breaking. A similar situation exists in Doopadakatte and Heroor. The damaged tar layer near Mahesh Hospital has been removed but the road is an open invitation to danger as it has not been re-tarred.
The situation at SMS College and near Mahesh Hospital has directly affected two-wheeler riders. Two-wheeler riders have been losing control and meeting with accidents on the damaged and incomplete roads.
Locals have urged the contractors to start and complete the work without delay.
