when you are travelling in a national highway you will be happy that your car is going at 120km speed and you will reach your destination soon. but when you want to get down at a village you are in a dilemma. as the parapet walls are one meter high for the safety you cannot cross the road at your wish. and as the road is at a height of 3 to 4 meters (about 20 foot) to go to a right side village or a small town you will have to go to another 4 or 5 kilometers to reach a service road on the left side of the highway and then go upto the tunnel of darkness which is not easily visible and after roaming to and fro for 30 minutes you will find out that hole and then go to the right side service road and go to your destination on the right side. if you miss the service road which is coming 2 km in advance of that village then you will have go to another 10 kms to find out another hole of another village. you must be sportive in doing these things otherwise you will have to take tablets for your blood pressure.
why not pillar type flyovers can be built instead of the high rise walls with sand filled inside. the filling of sand by bringing it from distances by lorries may be costlier than this concrete pillars. I wonder which engineer in National Highway Authority has designed this nonsense.
