Gurgaon Road Woes: Pipeline Leakages Cause Pothole Crisis

29 Jul 2024 CW Team

Gurgaon is grappling with a significant pothole problem on its key roads, primarily due to persistent pipeline leakages. The ongoing issue has led to extensive damage to the city's infrastructure, creating hazardous driving conditions and posing risks to both vehicles and pedestrians.

The leakages, originating from an ageing pipeline network beneath the road surfaces, have caused the roads to erode and develop numerous potholes. The situation has been exacerbated by the city's rapid urbanisation and increased traffic volume, which has further stressed the already damaged infrastructure.

Local authorities have been criticised for their delayed response in addressing the issue. Despite multiple complaints and requests from residents, repair work has been slow, contributing to the worsening road conditions. The damaged roads not only impact daily commutes but also affect emergency services and local businesses.

Efforts to fix the problem have been hampered by the need to first address the underlying pipeline issues before repairing the roads. The city?s public works department is now working on a comprehensive plan to both replace the ageing pipelines and resurface the damaged roads. This plan aims to prevent future leakages and ensure the long-term durability of the road infrastructure.

The situation in Gurgaon highlights the broader challenge of maintaining urban infrastructure amid rapid development. The city?s officials have assured that steps are being taken to resolve the issue, but it remains crucial for timely and effective action to restore road safety and quality in the affected areas.
