The city corporation is working to expedite the completion of the underground drainage (UGD) project and the 24x7 water supply scheme to ease public hardships. Corporation Commissioner M Sivaguru Prabhakaran reported 98% completion of the UGD work on the Kurichi-Kuniyamuthur stretch but slower progress on other areas, including Vellakinaru-Saravampatti, Thudiyalur-Kovundampalayam, and Ondipudur. The corporation has requested Rs 2 billion from the state for road repairs, with Rs 1 billion expected in the first phase. Efforts will focus on relaying main roads while maintaining ongoing projects. Locals have expressed frustration over poorly maintained roads due to the work.
