Crater-filled road in Beta-1 leaves commuters at risk, residents allege authority negligence
Greater Noida: The service road in B and C blocks of Beta-1 sector has deteriorated to a dangerous level, triggering anger among residents over alleged administrative apathy. The stretch, riddled with deep potholes and severe waterlogging, has become a daily ordeal for commuters and pedestrians alike.
The road condition has worsened beyond comparison, even poorer than rural roads. Large craters filled with stagnant water have made both walking and driving extremely risky. Several incidents of people falling and sustaining injuries have been reported, while vehicles continue to suffer damage due to the uneven surface.

RWA General Secretary Harendra Bhati stated that the issue has been raised multiple times with concerned officials.
Complaints were reportedly made to senior manager Rajesh Nim, manager Swatantra Verma and assistant manager Kuldeep Sharma, but no concrete action has been taken so far.

Demanding immediate intervention, residents have urged the CEO and ACEO of the Greater Noida Authority to take strict action against responsible officials and ensure urgent repair and reconstruction of the road. They warned that continued negligence could lead to a major accident if the issue is not addressed promptly.
