Sri Vijaya Puram, November 10: Mr. Abdul Siddique, Ex-Pramukh, Mayabunder, has written to the Executive Engineer, NACD, APWD, Mayabunder, on behalf of the people of Mayabunder, requesting the widening of the Neem Tala link road at Pokadera, which is an important shortcut route.
In the letter \he stated that vehicle movement has increased significantly on this road, especially during peak hours such as school and office timings. The road is very convenient for ambulances plying from R.P. Hospital, as well as for all other vehicles, and has now become very busy and plays an important role in the daily life of the people of Mayabunder. He said regular clearance of bushes and jungle, especially at turning points, is necessary to maintain proper visibility and prevent accidents, which will ensure safety and convenience for commuters, including children and local residents.
He further stated that the road is quite narrow, making it difficult for vehicles to give way and pass each other when coming from opposite directions. If widening work is carried out on both sides of the link road from Danapur, near the PMT unit, up to Hospital Junction, it will allow smoother and safer traffic movement. The available space on both sides of the road can be utilised for widening it, which will be beneficial for all commuters.
Mr. Siddique has requested the Executive Engineer to look into the matter in the interest of public safety and convenience and to give the necessary direction to the officials concerned in the department to make the necessary arrangements for the widening of Neem Tala Road at the earliest.
