Siolim: It has become a dusty four years for Theresa Fernandes and his family, who lives along Jalan Marna-Siolim.
Nearly 4 km from this road resembling a back-road off-rooad track.
While CM Pramod Sawant has promised that he would make it difficult to see a hole in Jalan Goan on November 1, hours before the deadline ended on Sunday, every expectation of the Marna-Siolim Road was repaired with the Fernandes family.
This road is not only used by the local residents of Siolim but is an important relationship between Mapusa and Pernem for locals and tourists to the coastal belt Ashvem-Arambol.
“We have been waiting for years now to be repaired,” Theresa said.
Last year, bored with irresistible dust entering the house, we finally covered the front of our house in the mesh to keep dust, “Theresa said, from Chaudi Vaddo.” The road through Marna is the main road for people traveling from Pernem to Mapus and vice-versa.
But everyone now takes the Siolim-Mapapa road which is much narrower through Sodiem, to avoid the path of the podium through Marna.
As a result, the Sodiem Road has turned into a traffic nightmare, especially on weekends, in a big rush of tourists going to Morjim, Arambol, Mandrem, Ashvem and Keri, “said Local Siolim Joaquim Almeida.
Road Marna first dug around four Last year to put irrigation pipes WRD, remember locals.
Siolim residents have not seen the road in good condition since then.
“Today, the deadline of November 1 ends.
You told me, where was the way? Because the road was excavated four years ago, only superficial improvements had been made, and there had never been an attempt to coat the entire stretch with a hotmix layer.
I drive on this road almost every day.
In the rainy season, it is difficult to know where the water ends and where the road starts, “said Milan Sadekar, a resident of Igrez Vaddo, Siolim.
Deputy Sarpanch from Siolim-Marna Panchayat and a member of the ward by stretching the affected road, William Fernandes, said that he Having ran from the pillar to the post for years now to get a hot road.
“I have written to every possible authority for the past three years or more to get a repaired path.
Now, they are preparing for Hotmix the road and it will be done soon, I have been told.
But there is a leak in seven places in the pipe placed under the road.
If the leak is not installed first and the path is hotmixed, then the road will return to his poor country in a short time, “said Fernandes.
The deadline of November 1 was missed, the locals had given up on the possibility of a better way.” For the local residents, Jalan Siolim has become a bad benchmark in Goa.
If Siolkar mentions a bad road, we asked him whether it was as bad as Marna Road.
If it’s not as bad, it’s not a bad road, “Almeida said.
