Commuters and residents of Jalandhar Heights and other localities located near 66ft road are miffed over the slow pace of road-widening work. The residents alleged that the construction work was going on in full swing ahead of the Assembly poll, but now they are clueless as to when the road will be completed.
They said despite the fact that the road caters to heavy traffic throughout the day, the work is going on at snail’s pace.
“There’s an educational institute on the same stretch, a housing society that has over 10,000 families, besides it’s the main road that leads to Pholriwal village and other localities, but still no efforts are being made to speed up the construction work,” said Mayank Joshi, a resident of Jalandhar Heights.
