Navi Mumbai: Navi Mumbai Municipal Commissioner Dr. Kailas Shinde conducted a surprise inspection of ongoing road improvement works in the Seawoods area, directing officials to complete the projects within 8 to 10 days while maintaining high construction quality.
Inspection Of Key Sectors
The inspection, carried out without prior notice, covered road resurfacing and asphalting work in Sectors 46, 48, and 50. Dr. Shinde was accompanied by City Engineer Shirish Ardavad and Executive Engineer Madan Waghchaude.
He personally examined the work quality, technical specifications, and the asphalting process, instructing teams to ensure that the asphalt temperature does not fall below 120°C and that damaged road stretches are properly levelled before resurfacing.
Response To Citizen Complaints
Dr. Shinde’s inspection followed numerous citizen complaints about poor road conditions after the prolonged monsoon. Due to continuous rains since May and frequent road digging by various utility agencies, proper resurfacing had been delayed, causing potholes and uneven patches across several areas.
Strict Instructions For Quality And Audits
The Commissioner emphasized that quality must not be compromised and instructed that ongoing works also include completion of adjacent water pipeline repairs. He directed officials to have all completed works verified through third-party quality audits to ensure compliance with standards.
Inspection Of Key Junctions
During his visit, Dr. Shinde inspected key locations such as the Aksar Signal stretch, L&T Bridge junction, and the Sector 50 main road, reviewing progress and technical practices.
