Gurgaon: Road barriers at Fresco society for safety

In order to ensure safety of residents, the RWA of Fresco society has been placing road barriers for slowing down the speed of vehicles inside the condominium. As many as 10 barriers have been placed at five spots in sets of two to control speed on internal lanes.

Recently, when a fire broke out in the society, the fire brigade faced difficulty entering the condominium. The RWA then swung into action and began removing the surface cars to create space.

Nilesh Tandon, president of the RWA, told City Spidey, “It was this empty space where we observed that cars were driving a little faster than the prescribed speed limits. We then decided to place barriers.”

The space was created when the area was cleared of almost 100 cars while 80 cars were removed from the visitor parking.

“Residents wanted us to make speed breakers but since speed breakers tend to damage the road and could be harmful for pregnant women, we thought barriers would be better” added Tandon.

The barriers have been kept on straight roads keeping in mind that curves slow down speed automatically.

“The children keep playing around, hence this was really needed to prevent vehicles from driving fast,” said Suneet Makkad, a resident.
