CHENNAI: The city corporation is to put off approvals for road cuts until deemed urgent during the monsoon season, amidst complaints of bad roads. The corporation had taken up work on the integrated storm water drain project for the Kosasthalaiyar basin, which includes constructing stormwater drains in the northern parts of the city.
Work that began in July for the long-term project is scheduled for completion in three years. “For these areas, we have given instructions for barricading and undertaking all safety arrangements to prevent any untoward incidents during the monsoon,” a senior corporation official told TNIE.
