The damaged
pedestrian footpath along Anna Nagar 3rd Avenue, near Shanthi Colony Signal
junction was renovated by Chennai Corporation on 10th May 2013. The Chennai
Corporation will also start removing encroachments along pedestrian facilities
based on a list submitted by the Traffic Police.
As a step towards removal of
encroachments, traffic police officials had initiated a survey of all the
encroachments on footpaths along bus route roads in Anna Nagar area.
It is
officially reported that Chennai Corporation has also began work on building
new granite pavements along Chennai city roads. The granite pavements will be
built along 70 roads including main stretches in Anna Nagar, Shenoy Nagar and
Arumbakkam. Chennai Mayor Saidai Duraisamy stated that the new granite
pavements are individually designed to suit a specific road and will also be
disabled-friendly.
The project has been launched with ’Chennai City Connect’,
an NGO ( Non- Government Organisation) that deals with transport and urban
planning.
