KINS Impact: R&B begins repair work on Bemina Bypass to Bemina crossing road

Srinagar, Oct 04 (KINS): Days after KINS highlighted the deteriorating condition of the road stretch between Bemina Bypass and Bemina Crossing, the Roads and Buildings (R&B) Department has commenced urgent repair work on this critical route.

The road, plagued by deep potholes, had been causing significant distress to both local residents and commuters for months.

An official from the R&B Department confirmed the development to KINS, stating, “We have started filling the potholes along this stretch to ensure smoother traffic movement and reduce the risks that have been mounting due to the poor road condition.”

The road’s condition had been a growing concern for travelers, particularly two-wheeler riders, who were facing frequent vehicle damage and safety risks.

The damaged road not only led to recurring traffic jams but also posed a serious threat to vehicles, with several local residents reporting that the situation was dangerous and could potentially lead to accidents if left unaddressed.

Shabir Ahmad, a local scooter rider, shared his relief and excitement with KINS, saying, “The repair of potholes on this road is a great relief. Navigating them was not only inconvenient but also hazardous. I’m happy that work has finally started.”

In recent months, residents had reached out to the district administration and even appealed to the office of Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha to intervene. The community had expressed frustration over temporary fixes where dust and loose materials were used to fill the potholes, a solution that failed to provide long-term relief.

However, today’s efforts by the authorities appear more promising, as they are taking the necessary steps to repair the road properly.

Jamsheed Ahmad, a local resident, expressed his gratitude, adding, “It’s reassuring to see that the authorities are now addressing these potholes seriously. The road will finally be safer for all travelers, especially for two-wheeler riders like me.”

The residents had specifically requested the Deputy Commissioner of Srinagar and the LG administration to prioritize this road for urgent repairs.(KINS)
