He also said that all roads across the state will be hotmixed by March next year, he said.

Admitting that the dug-up roads are inconveniencing citizens, Dhavalikar said that the public works department (PWD) will take up tarring once the contractor completes the cabling work.

Several roads have turned uneven, while some stretches are unmotorable due to the ongoing power cabling work.

Commuters have pointed out that the trenches that have been dug up for the cabling work pose a serious risk to commuters.

Dhavalikar said that the cabling work in Ponda will resume once the monsoon withdraws, and will be followed by hotmixing.
