Bengaluru: A video clip doing the rounds on social media zooms into what ails Old Airport Road and how motorists feel about it. Many commuters say driving there offers only an “off-road” experience these days. The road, many motorists concur, has become unfit for vehicular movement, thanks to civic apathy.
The motorists cite the off-roading parallel because of multiple obstacles on the 4-km stretch between Kundalahalli and Varthur Kodi.
Sandeep K, a businessman who uses Old Airport Road daily, said: “The road has been dug up at a few places and potholes dot the stretch. Riding a two-wheeler without falling is an arduous task and very risky at night. At certain places, it gives me a feeling of having strayed off the road.”
