BROKEN drainage covers along Queens Road, from Cubbon Park Metro Station to MG Road Circle (near Chinnaswamy Stadium Road), have been a safety hazard for over a month, endangering pedestrians and motorists. Despite the high volume of daily commuters on this stretch, authorities are yet to take action.

Of the 30 drainage covers along the road, four are completely broken, and three are partially damaged, posing a significant threat to vehicle users. Only one barricade has been placed near a broken cover at the Chinnaswamy Stadium Bus Stop, but it offers limited protection.
