My Kolkata had earlier reported on the hardship faced by residents , from damaged vehicles and medical emergencies to elderly pedestrians nursing fractures. The second phase started on Monday with patchwork, and by Tuesday morning, a fresh bitumen surface was laid up to the entrance gate of Mayfair Greens apartment complex. Initially, some basic repair work was done and suddenly just before Diwali 2023, all the work stopped. Facility staff at Mayfair Greens echoed similar concerns. While residents remain watchful until the final stretch is completed, the fresh layer of bitumen has already changed the mood on SN Ghosh Avenue.
