Sir,
I have written several repeated letters under this column over the last two years for the need to install a traffic signal at the junction of Hotel Red Lotus Suites located on Akka Mahadevi Road, J.P. Nagar. No action has been taken till date on the same. It seems all my appeals have fallen on blind eyes and deaf ears.
It has been noticed with concern that there is a lot of uncontrolled vehicular movement at this junction. It is proving to be very difficult for pedestrians, especially senior citizens, ladies and children residing in the area, to cross the road at this junction, what with vehicles whizzing past in all four directions, without a thought being shown by some rash drivers towards the lives and safety of pedestrians on the road.
Quite a few accidents have taken place at this junction, resulting in injuries to pedestrians and damage to vehicles. Hence, I appeal to the traffic authorities concerned to take necessary steps to install traffic lights signal, along with those for pedestrian crossings too, at the earliest, to prevent any further mishaps from taking place, resulting in loss of or injury to innocent lives.
