Six recently installed high-tension poles collapsed on Gurgaon-Faridabad Road, disrupting traffic on Thursday.
The poles were part of an ongoing project to lay a high-tension transmission line for the Gwal Pahari area. The collapse triggered traffic chaos on the road, according to The Times of India.
Six high-tension poles have collapsed on Gurgaon-Faridabad Road, leading to traffic disruption in the area.
The poles had recently been installed for an ongoing project to lay a high-tension transmission line serving Gwal Pahari. The available report does not state what caused the collapse, whether there were any injuries, or how long traffic movement may be affected.
For people travelling between Gurugram and Faridabad, the incident may mean delays on this corridor while the site is attended to and the damaged infrastructure is assessed. Residents in and around Gwal Pahari may also want to watch for updates on the transmission-line project, though no information on its revised timeline is available yet.
The collapse also raises questions about the condition and installation of the newly erected poles. Details from the agencies carrying out the project, including any safety assessment or traffic-management plan, were not included in the report.
