PWD has been asked to repair all the major roads where Public Transport is affected

Most of the roads in the district under the control of PWD, PMGSY and other authorities has been repaired recently in pursuance to issues raised and reviewed in Sub divisional and District level Development Review Meetings. However, the conditions of some of the roads has become beyond repair technically due to damage of sub soil structure and only solution is thorough renovation and strengthening. For example, State Highway from Burdwan to Bankura More - Khnadghosh, STKK after Katwa up to Nerole and towards Dainhat, Guskara Ausgram road, Road leading to Ramjibanpur and Asansol Niyamatpur Salanpur Road. What can be done?
Only option in short run is the pothole repair, with repetition of the work after every month till monsoon season is over and thereafter thorough maintenance work including strengthening and widening of the road. The condition of sub soil has deteriorated too the extent that any patch work/ pothole repair can't bear the heavy load of traffic. PWD made physical verification of all these roads and has completed/ on completion of patch work to make it motor able. Funds for permanent maintenance has been sanctioned and work orders issued for Bankura More Khandghosh road, Guskara- Ausgram Road, Asansol Salanpur Road and that for STKK is under consideration with finance department. We need to wait for monsoon to be over for permanent restoration and help PWD authorities for pothole repairs.
