“Inside the city limits, the condition of the road is worst, especially near the Dugri flyover. Now, the condition of broken portions on the road has worsened.Ī businessman, Sukhpreet Singh, said commuters face a lot of inconveniences due to big potholes on the road. Sekhon said when people pay huge taxes, why the road was not being repaired? The state government should pay attention and ensure early repair of the badly broken road.Īccording to information, the road was constructed/carpeted under the Southern Bypass project around 11 years ago and it was not recarpeted after that. Some people have also started avoiding the broken road as chances of mishap and vehicle damage cannot be ignored, he said. Mahinder Singh Sekhon, chairman of ‘Meri Maa Boli Punjabi Sabha’, an NGO, said chances of mishaps remain high due to big potholes on a flyover road near BRS Nagar, a stretch between Jawaddi and the Dugri flyover and various other parts of Southern Bypass. Residents blamed the department concerned for ignoring the deep potholes that appeared at various points on the road. Southern Bypass Road, along the Sidhwan Canal, links Ferozepur Road, Ludhiana junction with Doraha. However, the PWD and government are yet to take requisite measures in this regard. Moreover, commuters also complain about vehicles getting damaged while passing over the big potholes. People, especially those with any injury or pregnant women, are forced to suffer more as jerks due to potholes on the road often aggravate their pain. Travelling on the dilapidated stretches of the road has become a nightmare for commuters. The potholed Southern Bypass Road cries for attention for a long time.
