It's not only cement concrete (CC) stretches built by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) that are developing cracks—the surface of a CC road made by the public works department (PWD) less than six months ago in Aarey Milk Colony has also begun to fissure. 

At one location, the surface has started peeling off. The PWD is repairing internal roads measuring 45 km in the colony and as part of this, some sections are being concreted, though the majority of the stretch will be made of tar.
