Ask any Hyderabadi about city’s traffic, you will hear how annoyed they are and how the problem is getting worse day by day. The government definitely knows about it and is also trying to solve it by introducing MMTS, flyovers, metro rails, etc. But the basic maintenance of existing roads is being ignored. Thus, even with the aid of infrastructure projects budgeted on hundreds of crores of public money – the issue still exists.
Hyderabad India Online recently conducted a poll to know the opinion of Hyderabad’s citizens if the bad maintenance of roads is causing traffic jams in Hyderabad including damaged road sections (washed away bitumen), unrepaired dug-ups, potholes, raised or sunken manhole covers and uneven surfaces; and if high quality maintenance of major roads will greatly reduce traffic congestion on main roads.
According to the poll results, a majority of the poll respondents voted for Strongly agree and Agree on the topic. It states that almost 90% of them believe that high quality maintenance of major roads will greatly reduce traffic congestion.
The conviction of the participants has surprised us. We did not expect such a strong opinion. We feel that this is something that needs to be acted upon by the concerned administrators based on the conviction of the voters.
