SHILLONG: The State PWD has blamed the East Khasi Hills district administration for not being able to stop vehicles from plying on the Khyndailad thoroughfare resulting in dislocation or breaking of tiles.
Officers from the PWD (Roads) on Tuesday said the department had moved the district administration with a request to stop plying of vehicle in the stretch at night time besides removing hawkers from the stretch but till date nothing has been done in this regard.
Stating that people drop cylinders and ply their vehicle along the stretch where tiles have been laid, the PWD officers said the district administration needs to step in and remove the bottlenecks from the stretch.
Though a whopping amount of Rs. 1.60 crore was spent on the Khyndailad beautification project, tiles are getting dislocated in several places owing to the hawkers and vehicles and the unprofessional attitude of the contractors resulting in a complete lack of maintenance of the broken or missing tiles in the thoroughfare.
