Anna Nagar 13th
Main Road has become a busy bus route stretch. The entire one way stretch of
13th Main Road in Anna Nagar starting from 18th Main Road till Shanthi Colony
4th Avenue has to be improved at various spots. At many places there are no
proper pedestrian pavements.
The footpaths are lying in a damaged condition at
many places. Uncleared debris and obstacles such as posts and cable wires makes
movement of pedestrians difficult along 13th Main Road.
Despite repeated advice
form electricity board and Chennai Telephones authorities, the electricity and
telephone wire junction boxes at 13th Main Road looks ugly and shabby as they
are fully covered up with advertisement posters.
Sometimes the authorities are
not able to open the boxes to carryout repairs, due to thick advertisement
pasting. Chennai Corporation officials stated that footpath renovation is in
progress at Anna Nagar.
Civic authorities will also improve the condition of
the pavements along 13th Main Road. Electricity Board and BSNL officials
request the Anna Nagar area residents to avoid pasting advertisement posters on
road junction boxes.
Most of the area residents suggested that speed
restrictions and better traffic management will reduce chaos along 13th Main
Road and would pave way for safe pedestrian crossing.
