Despite spending Rs 1.5 crore on roadwork to make the Sion-Panvel highway monsoon ready, motorists are already experiencing a bumpy ride thanks to potholes, which began to appear even before the monsoon hit the city.

The asphalt is already wearing off on the highway, pointing  to the shoddy  work done in the Rs 1,220-crore road widening and concretisation project. Motorists are also unhappy about the shoddy patchwork repairs being conducted on the highway currently. Pics/Suresh KK
