Damage of many roads during heavy monsoon showers of the past few days has left the capital's road infrastructure in a shabby state, causing problems to vehicular movement and sufferings to the people. The condition of the roads in Uttara, Dhanmondi, Dakkhin Khan, Mohammadpur and some other areas are in a vulnerable state with potholes developing at many points, residents said. Heavy downpours in the last few days have washed away the asphalts of the roads, including the Airport Road in front of the airport railway and bus stations, forcing vehicles to avoid a large portion of the wide road damaged due to use substandard materials. The city people, however, said the authorities concerned had failed to oversee the quality of the jobs when the works were done. The residents in the worst-affected areas also blamed lack of coordination among the utility service agencies. The Dhaka City Corporation, which has 1,889 km roads, spent about Tk 142 crore for maintaining the roads during the past financial year while it has fixed Tk 170 crore for the current fiscal.
