Arbitrariness of merchants

Trouble for pedestrians too
At the cycle market on Pathar Gate Road near Nyaya Mandir Bhagatsingh Chowk in Vadodara city, traders leave their small and large bicycles on the road in front of the shops for sale. As a result, the cycle comes 5 feet above the road from the edge of the footpath. Placing bicycles on the road makes it difficult for drivers to pass. While vehicle drivers and even pedestrians have to cross the road at the risk of their lives, cycle market traders have been repeatedly persuaded by local councilors and municipal officials not to put bicycles on the road. Attempts have been made to explain by giving notices several times. However, traders were running wild and leaving the footpaths and putting bicycles for sale on the road.
