Taking serious note of a mid-day report, the public works department (PWD) has identified several locations on internal roads in Aarey Milk Colony where newly constructed cement concrete (CC) roads have developed cracks or where the upper layer has started coming off. Rectification work has already begun.  PWD officials confirmed they have identified multiple spots that require repairs.

A PWD official said, “We have already started rectification work on the newly made CC road where cracks have appeared on the upper surface. We have identified problem patches, and since the road is still under the defect liability period (DLP), the contractor will complete the repairs at the earliest.” Locals also confirmed that repair work has begun near the Aarey Market junction, where the PWD-built CC road had developed cracks and an uneven surface.
