Sir,

It has been noticed with concern that there is lot of uncontrolled vehicular movement at the junction of Hotel Red Lotus Heritage located on Akkamahadevi Road in JP Nagar.

It is proving to be very difficult for pedestrians, especially the elderly, 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.

Quite a few accidents have taken place at this junction, resulting in injuries to pedestrians and damage to vehicles.

Hence, I earnestly appeal to the traffic authorities concerned to take necessary steps to install traffic lights signal, along with those for pedestrian crossings too, at the said junction, at the earliest, to prevent any further mishaps from taking place, resulting in loss of innocent lives.
