Roads in Greater Noida’s P-3 are riddled with pothole
Noida: Residents of P-3 in Greater Noida have raised concerns over the worsening condition of internal roads in the area. They said potholes, cracks and stagnant water have made commuting difficult and created safety risks for both pedestrians and motorists.In a letter to the GNIDA CEO, Paritosh Bhati, member of the Federation of RWAs, Greater Noida, urged an immediate inspection of the roads, along with urgent repairs to prevent accidents and ensure public safety.“The deplorable condition of the road infrastructure in our sector, Sector P-3, is serious. For a considerable period now, both the main thoroughfares and the internal roads within our sector have fallen into a severe state of disrepair.
Deep potholes have emerged at various spots across the roads; as a result, two-wheeler riders frequently fall and sustain injuries, while vehicles suffer significant damage,” Bhati wrote.He went on to say, “During the rainy season, the situation becomes even more alarming as these potholes fill up with water, making it extremely difficult — if not impossible — for residents to even walk on the roads. Despite numerous oral and written complaints, no concrete steps have been taken to address this issue so far.”
Massive potholes in the sector are left inundated when it rains
Another resident, Aditya Bhati, pointed out that two-wheelers often slip and fall due to the potholes here. “The stagnant water accumulating in the potholes is also a potential health risk, particularly due to the breeding of mosquitoes,” he added.He said that despite residents filing numerous complaints with the Authority over the past two years, they have received little more than excuses from officials in response. “If this neglect continues, we will be forced to take further action,” he said.When asked about the issue, GNIDA officials said that the tender process for road repairs is ongoing and attributed the delay in the repairs.
