KRV demands road widening

The Karnataka Rakshana Vedike staged a demonstration in front of the Belgaum City Corporation on Friday demanding commercially important roads in the city be widened.

Rajeev Topannavar, submitted a memorandum to the commissioner demanding that he take up work to widen the Old Pune-Bangalore Road from the RTO Circle to the Sait Petrol Bunk. Congestion of traffic and road jams had become a routine affair on this road. The corporation should start work to widen the road up to 120 ft, which would give relief to the citizens.

KRV also demanded that two other roads — the stretch from Sait Petrol Bunk to Amba Bhavan Hotel (Patil Galli) near the Belgaum Railway Station and the stretch from Pangul Galli to Sheetal Hotel —, which were commercially important roads and connect major centres in the city, should also be widened.

Belgaum getting many Traffic Signals:Khanapur Road widened

These are new on the Belgaum roads now. New traffic signals are being put up at RPD Cross & Cantonment Bord cricle(near Globe Theatre). No doubt these were necessary but with these the road humps near the signals should be removed otherwise the traffic will become dead slow. and hope they will be on for quite a some time other than those installed earlier.
