TIRUCHY: With the city receiving rain over the past few days, commuting through damaged roads in KK Nagar have become an ordeal for residents. Many of them said the ongoing underground drainage pipeline works have worsened the condition of the roads and the Corporation should at least carry out some temporary repair works to help road users.
Ganesh Kumar, a resident of Fourth Street in Kovardhan, said, “Last year, we did not face so much trouble. Though the roads were in poor condition, we were at least able to commute. Now, the drainage works have badly damaged the roads and left so much soil on the surface. Rain has made the area slushy and extremely slippery for two-wheelers. I recently fell off my bike. The Corporation is not taking our complaints seriously. Officials must ensure that contractors do not leave the roads in such a condition.”
