Jagdeepji,
Great details...
hope that we will start framing question and RTI Applications on the details given by you !
wish if we can have such minute details on other areas of BMC depts. like health, B&P, Encroachments, TP, Water, Health, License, etc.
One more question comes to my mind why the BMC has not been taking the construction of Roads in its own hands instead of Contractors !
as it is road are of poor quality, Mumbai will save hundreds of crores of rupees and also we can fix responsibility on the engineers / officers of BMC - Road dept. and no more shouting " Contractor - Contractor " the moment Mumbai gets first rains every year !
regards
Namitabh

Namaskar,
All the reports about those contractors who rose from the low ranks of the MCGM to becoming multi crorepati business menInstead of only blaming them, how about investigating01 Which officials or committee members gave them the contracts02 Which sub junior, junior engineers supervised the work, if at all03 Which level engineer checked the work after completion04 Who were the deputy engineers who passed the bills05 Who passed the bills in the accounts department
06 When defects were seen within the defects liability period, which official inspected the site if any, and what were the reports given, and why the contractor was paidThe point is no matter how educated or not the errant contractor is, the buck stops at the top.They can't do anything unless the system allows them to.
And who has physically counted the pot holes, how can any one believe there are only a few thousand pot holes.
And what constitutes a pot hole, so many centimetres deep, so many centimetres in diameter.Actually, any level; difference between the road surface in general and otherwise, should constitute a pot hole, since the person walking on it, or the vehicles, have to adjust to a different height in an instant.The different road surfaces, asphalt, cement concrete, paver block, no harmony in the junctions , man hole surrounds, speed breakers, etc.And remember, we use asphalt, ie, tar, as an application on terraces for water proofing, so how is it that rain water washes away asphalt roads in the first rains.The totally ill advised permission to heavy commercial vehicles to operate during the day, instead of only at night.The unsupervised, uncoordinated, digging and incomplete covering of trenches, of civic works, of monorail, sky walk, metro work, etc., all contribute adversely to the condition of many roads in Mumbai.The plying of HCV on flyovers, actually banned, contribute adversely to the bad surface condition.
Constant braking and starting due to poor traffic management, poor conditions, etc., all contribute adversely.
Not only some small time person now big time contractor.Thanqx.Jagdeep DESAIArchitect>>>--
