The City Corporation is actively working on underground drainage (UGD) projects and road restoration in the 40 new wards recently incorporated into Coimbatore's corporation limits.
The ongoing underground work for the UGD system in Old Hubballi has caused traffic disruptions. Diversions have been put in place to ensure smooth traffic flow. The neglect of this busy road by authorities has been criticized. The road is in a dilapidated condition with numerous potholes. Residents are facing inconvenience and health problems due to dust menace.
Coimbatore: There was an undue delay in implementing underground drainage work at major junctions such as Avinashi Road, Kurichi Road, Kuniyamuthur Ro.
