Portion of Bengaluru’s JC Road caves in forming 8-feet-deep hole
A portion of the busy Jayachamarajendra (JC) Road in the central business district of Bengaluru caved in on Thursday gripping the motorists and local residents in a panic.
The sudden caving in of the busy stretch resulted in a 8 feet deep hole in the middle of the main road. A team of engineers from the road infrastructure wing of the BBMP rushed to the spot and inspected the road.
Allaying fears, Jagadeesh Naik, Joint Commissioner (South) said, “We are investigating the samples to ascertain the cause. However, the road is stable and hence we have allowed the regular traffic movement alongside the caved in spot.” Keeping in mind the safety of motorists, the engineers barricaded the spot to avoid any possible mishap.
