M. Maheshwar Rao, Chief Commissioner, Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA), has directed officials of the five City Corporations to expedite pothole-filling works on arterial, sub-arterial, and other major roads across Bengaluru.
In a virtual meeting with officials on Wednesday, Mr. Rao instructed the officials to identify potholes within their respective jurisdictions and ensure they were repaired promptly. He directed B-SMILE officials to ensure that roads where white-topping works are under way or proposed are free of potholes.
They were also asked to expedite the works without causing any inconvenience to motorists. Mr. Rao said that contractors must undertake repairs on roads under the defect liability period (DLP), while the respective City Corporations must fill potholes on all other roads.
He also directed officials to impose penalties on parastatals and other agencies that dig up newly asphalted roads without prior permission from the City Corporation, stressing that no road excavation should be allowed without proper authorisation, he said.
