The road passes through highly built-up residential areas and is characterized by very poor geometrical alignments including poor visibility. The road along Hermitage is narrow along several stretches with sharp bends. Consequently, this poses serious road safety concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, with the construction of the National Wholesale Market at Wooton on B6 Road, the traffic load is also expected to increase in the region.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section
