Chennai: This is the same old story playing on the loop year after year.
The continuous rain last week exposed battered road conditions in Ram Nagar, Srinivasa Nagaland around him in Madipakkam, made the trips difficult for riders and pedestrians.
While many roads are already in a bad condition, Madipakkam residents say government agencies and private internet service providers have explored roads in several locations.
“The crater is on the road it is dangerous for riders when it rains …
many falls.
In addition, these artificial holes are not battered and pose a further risk at night,” said S Srinivasan, a resident of Ram Nagar.
The environment is like Ram Nagar, Srinivasa Nagar, Sadasiva Nagar and Kubanan Nagar is submerged if the rain is excessive.
“Even now, you can see some empty plots here have been submerged in water.
This is a breeding place for mosquitoes,” said Govindasamy, a resident of Kuban Nagar.
The people who lived on Jalan Arivoli near Ram Nagar (North) said their way remained outdated for years and despite some representations, no actions were taken over the years.
Apart from the ideals of the local body in overcoming these problems, the movement of metro water tankers on the interior road also worsened the condition, said the local residents.
There is a metro water fill station on Jalan Annai Theresa in Puzhuthi-Vakkam and all metro water tankers use interior roads in Ram Nagar and Srinivasa Nagar for traveling.
Regardless of the hent, the tanker operates at a dangerous speed and pose a risk for motorists, said residents.
“People are afraid – to drive their vehicles or even walk.
We all know how this water tanker rash is encouraged,” said N Rajesh, a taxi driver.
An engineer in the 14-perungudi zone from Chennai Corporation said that the Civic body would take repairs to the interior road before the rainy season this year.
“Even before, when the road was broken by a water tanker, we used to patch it from time to time.
Before Monsoon began, we will do repair work,” said the engineer.
