"potholes"

Hyderabad commuters continue to face severe traffic problems due to waterlogging, potholes and damaged roads across the city. Civic bodies have identified nearly 1,000 waterlogging hotspots, while the GHMC has announced a 10-day pothole-filling and repair drive

Three days of continuous rainfall, coupled with ongoing infrastructure projects, caused widespread traffic congestion across Hyderabad. Waterlogged roads, potholes, and diversions disrupted commuting in several major areas, forcing motorists to take alternate routes and endure long delays.

Continuous rainfall has damaged roads across several Hyderabad localities, leaving potholes, washed-out surfaces, and unfinished civic works that pose risks to commuters. Residents have urged authorities to carry out immediate repairs, warning that deteriorating road conditions could lead to serious accidents.
