Road widening works commence at last

Old Alwal: The walls of the Kallu Compound were demolished to extend the road for vehicles and people to move freely. Motorists had met with accidents and suffered traffic jams due to lack of the narrow stretch.

Delay in restoration of roads after digging for laying drainage water pipelines has shrunk the road space. A local resident from IG Statue, K Nagesh, said, "There has been an increase in traffic in recent times. Have filed complaints for better roads since past year and now the road is being stretched at last."
