A week after being laid, paver blocks on Nasia Road in Indore have sunk following heavy rain, making the surface uneven and raising the risk of accidents.
After a drainage line was excavated on Nasia Road, paver blocks were installed to restore the carriageway. Within a week, heavy rainfall caused the newly laid blocks to settle and break away, leaving a jagged surface.
The deterioration has disrupted normal traffic flow, with drivers reporting difficulty in maneuvering and a heightened fear of vehicle damage or accidents.
Local authorities have been alerted to the issue, and municipal engineers are expected to assess the damage and plan remedial work to prevent further incidents.
Residents and commuters have been advised to exercise caution while using the affected stretch until repairs are completed.
The incident underscores the challenges of rapid road work in monsoon-prone regions and the need for robust construction standards.
