The Expresso has published a news item under the caption ‘Slushy Road’ on September 6. The news item had highlighted the problems of commuters due to slush on the road. Many commuters complained against the apathetic attitude of BBMP authorities to take up repair work to drain out the stagnated water on the road.

However, the BBMP authorities have filled the potholes and asphalted the road. Now, commuters face no problems to wait for a bus at this bus stop. “We thank the BBMP for taking an initiative to asphalt the road,’’ S Shanmugham, a commuter.

Meanwhile, Savitha Ramesh, corporator said that there was a slight delay in taking up the repair work. “I am planning to take up development of footpath and open drains on Swamy Vivekananda Road shortly,’’ said Savitha.
