The PWD (road) Engineers are least bothered to check on the advertisement boards that have been erected on the MDR10 Siolim road. There is no inspection of the size of the metallic frame structure that has been erected on the narrow divider of the road. The size of the metallic frame and  divider are of the same size and at a height of I.5m which will be dangerous to many two wheeler riders who risk brushing along the advertisement frame and with trucks having their carriage size more than the size of the body will surely damage both and cause of accidents will increase as the tourists who drive along this busiest road in Siolim are always speeding and driving recklessly with added stuntmen performance. Will the engineers check on it and refer to the IRC rules for such erection and adhere to the rules and regulations keeping road safety as priority as per the PIL in Bombay High Court at Goa clearly states the conditions.
