Coimbatore: Public demand repairs for dangerous bridges in Avarampalayam and Kulatheri
The public in Coimbatore has urged authorities to repair the dangerous bridge walls in Avarampalayam and increase the height of the safety walls along the Kulatheri stream, citing high risks of accidents.
Residents of Avarampalayam in Coimbatore have expressed concern over the deteriorating condition of the bridge on Mahatma Gandhi Road. The protective walls of the bridge are damaged, posing a significant risk to the large number of students and heavy vehicles that use this route daily.
Similarly, complaints have emerged regarding the low height of protective walls constructed by the National Highways Department along the stream on Kulatheri Road in Singanallur. Locals argue that the two-foot-high walls are insufficient and could lead to vehicles accidentally falling into the stream.
Social activists and the public have urged the relevant departments to take immediate action to repair the Avarampalayam bridge and increase the height of the safety walls along the Kulatheri stream to prevent accidents.
