    First of all the existing roads needs to be repaired atleast by tar and to ensure that teh vehicles dont get damaged and no injury to the passengers, then later think of concerting the roads. Both the roads of Kankanady bypass are in the hell of state.

    My request is to get our CM to travel in an auto on these roads.

    Concrete roads are going to create more heat in the city.Where are our environmentalist all of should oppose this.The road shall be bituminised which gives more life to the vehicles due to its cushioning effect.

    Also it abosorbs all the heat due to its back clour rather radiating heat like concrete. Respected MLA of mangalore requested to review on this. I request daiji world to forward this mail to concern. Have a nice warm mangalore with concrete roads.
