A ground report from the Kanpur-Lucknow Expressway reveals that repair work is underway for the fifth time, just twenty days after its inauguration. A stretch of three hundred to four hundred metres has suffered a surface collapse of six to seven inches, leading to a two-kilometre prohibition for commuters and forcing traffic onto an adjacent one-way lane.

Machineries and JCBs remain deployed as commuters question the quality of the newly constructed expressway.
