There are many roads which need a lot of improvement but I could only mention two. The condition of the road from Honda to Khandepar is really not worth mentioning in most places you cannot move more than 2 kms per hour that too with a lot of bouncing up and down. It is very dangerous specially for three wheelers I saw one such three wheeler almost overturning. I dont know why the government cannot function to get these roads repaired. I think a lot of mining vehicles are using these roads which need to be of concrete. I think the truck owners , mine owners could get together and pool in some money and save on the heavy expenses for repair of vehicles time and inconvenience to all vehicles. There are lot of empty promises of those in power but the day never dawns. When will we goans take the initiative to do some constructive work?
The second road that has recently been widened is the road from Calangute to Baga. I dont know how or who has done it but it is horribly done up. There is congestion and no traffic sense anybody drives overtakes any side and no traffic cop in sight. This being a very busy and important road needs great attention. It takes an hour or so to pass from calangute to baga . I really wonder what will happen if there is an emergency. I think we could go in for a helicopter service provided by the panchayat from the funds they are getting
