10 major city roads riddled with potholes
Kochi: Almost 50 stretches across 10 major city roads are riddled with potholes, finds a reality check carried out by TOI. The situation is making daily commuting a nightmare for commuters. Poor repair works, frequent digging by Kerala Water Authority, heavy rains, along with road and Metro construction activities, have worsened the condition, resulting in frequent traffic snarls at these places. Monsoon rains have also worsened the situation. Some of the major roads that are currently in poor condition include Kaloor–Kadavanthra (KK) Road, Palarivattom-Kakkanad Road, Thammanam–Pullepady Road, Edappally-Cheranalloor Road and Stadium Link Road. The Stadium Link Road is particularly alarming, especially in front of the IMA office, where the stretch is riddled with multiple potholes. In a symbolic protest, residents even planted a sapling in the middle of the road, where potholes are filled with rainwater. "The road was in a damaged state for the past two months. There were several complaints and even protests, but the authorities failed to act. One lane was repaired recently, but that too needs urgent attention," said Raju, who runs a restaurant on Stadium Link Road. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The boy meets a dog on the street - no one expected what happened next. Women's Method Learn More Undo Benny, who operates a tea shop nearby, echoed the same concern. The ongoing Phase II expansion works of Kochi Metro, combined with continuous heavy rainfall, have further worsened the Palarivattom–Kakkanad stretch. As a result, the stretch experiences long traffic snarls even during non-peak hours. Potholes have resurfaced on several stretches of KK Road, starting right from Kaloor Junction. The situation is the same at Kathrikadavu–Thammanam stretch. The road and a small bridge, which is part of the stretch, are also riddled with potholes. Kathrikadavu–Pullepady Road is no better. Even the portions that were recently repaired are now in a bad state. The Pullepady bridge is also filled with potholes. "The road journey from the city centre to Kakkanad has become a nightmare. During peak hours, it can take up to an hour to cover the stretch," said Arjun, a representative of Kochi Next Forum. "The ongoing Metro construction has severely disrupted smooth traffic flow and the potholes caused by incessant rain have only made things worse," he added. But Kochi Metro Rail Limited (KMRL) authorities clarified that the works were progressing at a fast pace and there were proper arrangements to ensure smooth traffic. Pachalam Junction, stretch from Edappally to Kunnumpuram ROB on NH 66, High Court Junction on Abraham Madamakkal Road and Jawahar Nagar Road, Ramankutiyachan Road connecting SA Road with Ernakulam South area, Janatha Road in Vyttila, Kizhavana Road connecting MG Road and Panampally Nagar and Venduruthy Bridge Road near Thevara are also in a bad condition. Goshree Bridge, a vital link connecting Vypeen region to the city centre, has become severely pothole ridden. Goshree Islands Development Authority (GIDA) chairman K Raghuraman, said the road was repaired twice in recent months, especially ahead of former Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar's visit to the city. However, continuous heavy rains caused fresh damage. "We are planning to carry out repair works in the coming days. The persistent rain forced us to postpone maintenance several times. Once the weather clears, we will begin the repair work without delay," he said. Mayor M Anilkumar assured that road repair works under the corporation's jurisdiction would be resumed once the weather improves. "One lane of KK Road was already repaired. The other lane can only be fixed after the rains subside," the mayor said. He added that nearly 80% of city roads were currently in good condition, while the damaged stretches were mostly due to ongoing pipeline work under AMRUT water supply scheme. "These works are progressing across various parts of the city," he added.
