Senior civic officials, after repeated complaints of pothole-ridden city, finally huddled at the BMC headquarters on Monday and decided to “fix the roads on war footing”,. They, however, stressed that contractors are in-charge of maintenance once they are awarded the projects to concretise the roads, sources said.
At the meeting, senior BMC officials admitted that most of the potholes are on the roads undergoing concreting work, sources said. Since last year, the BMC has given contracts to turn 662 km of asphalt roads into concrete.
