Bumpy rides galore in Kochi

KOCHI: Roads in the city are in a bad condition, with potholes, loose tiles and scattered waste making life difficult for commuters. Local residents say the authorities keep turning a blind eye to these problems.
“The authorities register complaints only after repeated requests. They do some patchwork on the potholed roads. They will be back to worse condition after three to six months,” says K Ravi, who commutes daily on his motorcycle.
