Astretch of the Science City-bound flank of the EM Bypass, near the Ruby hospital crossing, is dotted with multiple potholes forcing vehicles to swerve right and left to avoid them.
The road remains damaged even though the monsoon left the state in October.
The Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL) and the Calcutta Metropolitan Development Authority (CMDA) have blamed each other for the bad road. Both agencies are equally responsible for maintaining the stretch where a Metro construction is on.
A daily commuter said it was more than a month that the 150m stretch had been lying in such battered condition. Two-wheelers and four-wheelers suddenly have to slam brakes or are forced to swerve dangerously to avoid the craters, he said.
