Gurgaon: More than 300 families in Sushant Lok 3 are waiting for proper internal roads. The internal roads in F Block were laid around 2017, but residents said they have not been resurfaced since. MCG took over the colony in 2022, raising hopes among residents that the long-pending road repairs would finally be addressed.However, residents said the contractor eventually stopped work, saying the material allotted for the project got exhausted. Residents have questioned how the material could run out before all the roads were completed and have raised concerns over the preparation of the original estimate.“There is no proper drainage system, and the uneven patches make it difficult to walk. Estimates being prepared without properly assessing the requirements on the ground, resulting in several things being left out. The development is being carried out in a piecemeal manner,” said Sudakshina Laha, general secretary of the RWA.Residents said a fresh estimate was prepared for the remaining work. However, they are still waiting for the construction to resume. They have approached MCG several times and were told that the roadwork would be taken up after the tendering process.“We have repeatedly raised the issue with MCG officials, but all we get are assurances while residents continue to suffer every day. It has been more than four years since the MCG took over the colony, yet F Block is still waiting for proper roads. Some stretches are in such poor condition that residents are forced to wait for vehicles to pass and seek help to cross them,” said Pawan Yadav, RWA president of Sushant Lok 2 and 3.Meanwhile, an MCG official said that they resurfaced some of the roads in the colony before the monsoon. “The remaining stretches will be taken up post-monsoon,” the official said.
