Mallikarjun told mid-day, “We will be writing to BMC asking them to install speed-breakers/rumblers/signs on the main cement concrete road at Aarey Milk Colony so motorists and two-wheeler drivers drive at a lower speed.”

Aarey Milk Colony residents have demanded that speed-breakers and rumblers be installed at the earliest on a 2-km-long section of the main road that has been concretised, as motorists and two-wheeler riders tend to speed on the stretch after 10 pm, endangering their own lives and posing a threat to wildlife.
