BMC claims Mumbai roads to be pothole-free in two years

Mumbai's Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has claimed that the city's roads will become pothole-free in the next two years as the city's concretisation works are underway.

BMC said that the cement concretisation of 236 km of the metropolis' roads was underway for Rs 2,200 crore. Another 423 km of roads will be taken up in the financial year 2023-24.

BMC's statement has come after Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde chaired a review meeting on Mumbai roads. CM Shinde directed the civic body to ensure people get relief from potholes, and civic commissioner Iqbal Singh Chahal assured him that improvement of roads would be done soon.

All cement concretisation road works will be completed in the next two years, Chahal told the CM. As per the civic body, some 1,000 km of the 2,055 km of Mumbai's roads are already cement concretised.
