Cratered stretches and undulations make driving down EM Bypass in east Kolkata seem like being on a roller-coaster ride of an amusement park.
The artery is not only riddled with potholes but there are undulations created by uneven patchwork, some of which has worn out.
As a result, the ride is not only bumpy but the wheels of vehicles kick up dust, resulting in much reduced visibility.
The artery has not seen any overhaul in eight years. There have only been superficial repairs to cover potholes, undertaken by the Kolkata Municipal Development Authority (KMDA).
