🚨 CRITICAL WARNING FOR CHARMADI GHAT TRAVELLERS! 🚨
Have you noticed water springing out right through the middle of the tar road along Charmadi Ghat? 🛣️💧
While it might look like a simple water seepage or pipe leak, it is actually one of the most dangerous early warning signs of an impending landslide.
🔍 Why is this dangerous?
1️⃣ Pore Water Pressure: Persistent monsoon rains saturate the hillside, creating immense hydraulic pressure inside the hill.
2️⃣ Internal Soil Erosion (Piping): When water forces its way out through asphalt cracks, it carries fine soil particles deep within the mountain foundation.
3️⃣ Loss of Foundation: As soil washes away underneath, the road bed and adjacent slope lose their structural support.
⚠️ Precautionary Guidelines:
🛑 Never park or stop near active water springs on ghat roads.
🚗 Maintain extra braking distance and drive at low speeds.
📢 Report unusual water bursts or new road cracks to local police or public works authorities immediately.
🌧️ Avoid non-essential nighttime travel through steep ghat passes during red/orange alert heavy rain days.
Stay informed, drive safe, and protect your fellow commuters! 🌿🙏
