Team Herald

MARGAO: A special drive was conducted by traffic police with along with the panchayat and those parking their vehicles on the  Cavelossim-Assolna bridge were booked.

Villagers had often raised their voice against parking on the bridge as it leads to traffic congestion and also stated that anti-social activities were on the rise here.

 “Cavelosim village panchayat in coordination with Colva police conducted a special drive on Cavelossim-Assolna bridge on Sunday where a lot of vehicles were parked and issued challans. The safety of travellers is at risk when people park on both sides of the bridge. There are CCTV cameras and signboards but still many ignore them. We will take strict measures if this continues and I will not hesitate in getting a home guard posted on the bridge in the evening,” said Cavelossim Sarpanch Dixon Vaz.
