Cunningham Road crumbles a month after fresh asphalting

The newly laid stretch of Cunningham Road between Balekundri Circle and High Grounds police station is crumbling less than a month after its renovation.

With this shoddy work, the civic body appears to have ruined a road that was in good shape with proper lane markings on the excuse of “developing” it.

Sub-standard work was evident with a short stretch of the road having multiple patches.

An examination of the road’s edges revealed that the contractor got away by putting a thin layer of asphalt that added no value. However, the Cantonment Railway Station-High Grounds police station stretch has been neatly done.
