East Delhi's road 56, which connects National Highway-24 to Anand Vihar ISBT, lacks basic pedestrian facilities such as continuous and wide pavements on both sides of the road. The road has seem maximum accidents, with 23 people losing life last year, because of poor amenities.  
 
 Although the Public Works Department (PWD) built two foot over-bridges on the road and two more are being built, they have failed to reduce number of accidents.  
 
 The railing work that was to be done by PWD along the central verge to deter pedestrians from crossing at grade level is only half done.
 
 At the T-junction that connects Road 56 to NH-24 , there is a small crossover facility in the middle of the road, but no zebra crossings on either side. The absurd half-crossover facility is an instance of how concerned agencies remain indifferent to the needs of pedestrians.
