Lack of direction boards at Bhoste Ghat amid series of accidents.

While the tricky turn at Bhoste Ghat on the Mumbai-Goa highway is cursed with accidents, the lack of direction boards also leaves drivers stranded. The National Highways Department has not bothered to put up a direction board anywhere in Bhoste Ghat. Due to this, the season of Bhote accidents continues. The journey of motorists has become smooth with the completion of four-wheeling from Khawti to Parashuram Ghat on the highway. Although the time of the drivers is saved, Bhoste Ghat in four-wheeling is becoming a headache for the drivers. The lives of motorists are hanging on as the series of accidents involving heavy traffic vehicles continues on the tricky bends in the ghats. While passing through Bhoste Ghat, motorists have to literally hold on to their lives to push their vehicles. www.konkantoday.com
