Hameedullah, a university student said his time often wasted on travelling on this10-kilometer road to the university daily due to its dilapidated conditions.

Sayeedullah, another resident of Ghazni city said: “There had been always water ponds in the road which breaks down the vehicles and caused horrible accidents.” They all called on the government to reconstruct to damaged road.

The local officials confirmed that the residents of Arbabha area faced difficulties because of that road but added the construction of the road was a priority for the government.

Governor spokesman Abdul Wali Jalalzai told Pajhwok, there are a number of illegal shops, depots, yards and private buildings along the road which created obstacles for the construction project of the road.
