Pathetic condition of Vagator beach road poses risk to commuters

MAPUSA: The road leading to Vagator beach has become non-motorable and poses risk to commuters as the materials meant for repairing potholes on the route remains piled up in the middle of the road.

Although this road stretch has been closed for four-wheelers, but the two-wheelers use this road to reach the beach and surrounding areas.

However, since this road is not completely barricaded, tourist vehicles which are unaware that the road is blocked ahead continue to move ahead further, only take a U-turn later.

This road is in pathetic condition and has developed potholes. The soling of the road which was carried out prior to monsoon has washed off, making the road muddy and slippery. 

“This particular stretch of road is in pathetic condition making it difficult for motorists to ride on. Several minor accidents have occurred because of the slippery condition of the road. This road was dug prior to monsoon, however the hot-mixing was not taken up and has now become prone to accidents,” a local said.
