Days after a portion of a Brigade Road caved in injuring a motorcyclist, another portion of a road at Mahalakshmi Layout caved in around 8 am Tuesday, officials said. However, no one was injured.
The incident occurred only a few days after the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) finished asphalting the road, officials said.
Officials of the Bangalore Water Supply And Sewerage Board (BWSSB) who were at the spot told The Indian Express that cracks on BWSSB pipeline due to heavy vehicle movement led to heavy water flow which triggered the phenomenon of road cave-ins.
