Poor Agency Coordination Leaves Delhi Roads in Repeated Dig-and-Repair Cycle

Delhi's roads are frequently damaged due to multiple government agencies digging up the same stretches to lay cables, pipelines, and other utilities. The absence of effective coordination among these agencies means that freshly repaired roads are often excavated again shortly after. This repeated cycle of digging and patching significantly degrades road quality and reduces their long-term durability. The problem highlights a systemic gap in urban infrastructure planning across the capital.
