A portion of Camac Street in the central business district will remain shut to traffic for over a week and vehicles headed to AJC Bose Road will be diverted along Victoria Terrace and Gorky Terrace to facilitate the repair of a century-old underground brick sewer at the intersection of the two arteries.
If the project works, Camac Street’s recurrent waterlogging woes could be over, engineers said.
Parts of Camac Street and AJC Bose Road have already been dug up for the repair work and police have drawn up a traffic diversion plan, which will be in place for the next 10 days to facilitate the underground work of the sewer line, senior officers at Lalbazar said on Monday.
