Motorists were on Wednesday seen facing difficulties due to large and wide potholes on the road
BPT Road is a key route for both private vehicles and trucks heading to and from the port area
Experts suggest that the potholes primarily form due to water infiltration through cracks or poor drainage, which weakens the pavement structure
Potholes are more common during the monsoon due to excessive moisture, which weakens pavement layers and accelerates deterioration, they say
