A portion of the busy Kundalahalli Road in East Bengaluru caved in on Sunday resulting in a sinkhole a few feet wide, causing traffic to pile up, until it was closed by the civic agencies later in the day.
Officials from the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) said that the road caved in after a water pipe leakage which led to the seepage. “There were no other issues. We have immediately filled the hole so that there will be no traffic snarls on the stretch,” officials said, adding that no untoward incidents were reported owing to the sinkhole.
