Gurugram civic body directs builder to repair roads in DLF-1 & 2 and submit report

GURUGRAM: The deplorable condition of the roads in DLF-1 and 2 have left the residents a harried lot forcing councillor RS Rathee to write to MCG on August 27 asking them to get the roads repaired immediately.

Following the complaint, MCG on Tuesday directed DLF to start the work and sumbit a compliance report within three days.

When contacted, DLF refused to comment on the issue.

“Internal roads and the roads surrounding markets are in bad shape. The condition worsens during rains since potholes are filled with water. I am residing in this area for 14 years now and have rarely seen authorities resurfacing these roads. DLF comes and only repairs the part of the road which is damaged,” said Suresh Kumar, a resident of DLF-1.

“A number of residents raise this issue every other day. The condition of internal roads in DLF-1 and 2 needs to be looked into and these roads need immediate re-carpeting, which has been pending for a long time now,” said Rathee.

“DLF has not resurfaced our roads in the last 10 years. There are potholes making our commute a roller coaster ride. They just resurface main roads like Ashoka road and Arjun Marg, leaving internal roads in a bad shape,” said Dhruv Bansal, spokesperson of the Qutub Enclave RWA.
