The road leading to Covatem and New Township in Mena Cavorim, Chandor, near the bridge in Curtorim, is an area of significant concern for commuters, especially at night. The stretch of road is completely enveloped in pitch darkness due to the complete non-functioning of street lights, creating a hazardous environment for drivers and pedestrians. The lack of proper lighting not only makes it difficult for commuters to navigate the road safely but also heightens the risk of accidents, especially in the absence of any streetlights to guide them.
To make matters worse, the road itself is in a deplorable condition, with potholes and uneven surfaces further endangering the safety of those who use it. The deteriorating state of the road increases the chances of vehicle damage and accidents, particularly for two-wheeler riders who are more vulnerable on such rough surfaces. The poor road conditions, coupled with the darkness, create an environment that is both uncomfortable and unsafe for commuters.
