Waterlogging Creates Hazardous Road Conditions in Bhiwandi

Continuous rainfall led to severe waterlogging in the Vanjar Patti Naka locality of Bhiwandi in Maharashtra.

The accumulated water concealed potholes on the road surface, making it difficult for drivers to judge the depth and condition of the road. As a result, multiple vehicles reportedly struggled to cross the stretch safely.

Vehicles Get Stuck in Hidden Potholes

According to local accounts, several two-wheelers and cars lost balance after hitting unseen potholes under the water. Some vehicles became stuck, causing temporary traffic disruptions in the area as commuters waited for assistance or tried alternate routes.

A local resident, nicknamed “Spider-Man” by the community, was seen actively helping motorists navigate the waterlogged road. He guided vehicles through safer paths and helped prevent further incidents in the risky stretch. Residents said his efforts helped ease movement in an otherwise difficult situation caused by poor visibility and road damage.

Monsoon rainfall frequently causes waterlogging in several parts of Maharashtra, especially in low-lying urban areas. Poor drainage and road maintenance often worsen conditions, leading to potholes becoming hidden under stagnant water and increasing the risk of accidents.

Authorities typically advise commuters to avoid such stretches during heavy rainfall and to drive cautiously in waterlogged areas.
