Taking serious note of mid-day’s article highlighting potholes on the newly inaugurated stretch of the Samruddhi Mahamarg between Igatpuri and Amane, the Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC) has carried out repairs on the affected patch.

An MSRDC official said, “The bitumen layer over the bridge on the Samruddhi Mahamarg that had developed potholes has been repaired. Instructions have been issued to officials concerned to regularly inspect the stretch. Maintenance teams will address any road-related issues on priority to ensure motorists don’t face inconvenience.” MSRDC officials also shared photos of the repaired section, where potholes appear to have been completely patched.
