Roads and parks in Sector 38 (West) are in a pitiable condition. There is hardly any stretch of roads in the area without potholes. The parks are unkempt and green grass is missing in majority of them .

Roads in the area are all worn out. Road signs are missing here. Vehicular traffic is badly affected. The potholes in the roads are a big problem for those walking on them.

There are small stretches of open parks which have been maintained by the residents themselves. The parks have only patches of green grass and the dry soil leads to dust every where.

The sector is one of the major entry points for traffic from Punjab through Mohali. This portion witnesses traffic of heavy vehicles.

Another major problem in this residential area is the theft of manhole covers. Dozens of them have been stolen. “The residential quarters here are surrounded by a slum and there are no gates to check the entry of the outsiders. We are requesting the administration to construct gates at the entry points, which can be closed at least during the nights,� Mr Manohar Kumar Garg, president of the Joint Action Committee of the sector, said.

Mr V.K. Bhardwaj, Chief Engineer, said the recarpeting of the roads would be done “in the very near future. The details of the project have already been worked out�.
