Trichy Corporation Completes Phase II of UGD Project

Trichy Corporation has successfully completed the second phase of its underground drainage (UGD) project, marking a significant milestone in the city's infrastructure development. This phase aims to improve the overall sanitation system, benefiting numerous residents and businesses.

The project, which cost ?190 crore, involved the installation of underground sewer lines and the construction of new sewage pumping stations. This extensive work covered various areas, including Woraiyur, Srirangam, Ariyamangalam, and Abhishekapuram. With the completion of this phase, the UGD network now spans over 250 kilometres, significantly enhancing the city's sewage management capabilities.

Trichy Corporation Commissioner, Mr. V. P. Thandapani, stated that the completion of Phase II will address the long-standing issue of sewage overflow in several areas, especially during the monsoon season. He emphasised that this project is part of the broader initiative to modernise the city's infrastructure and improve public health.

The next phase of the UGD project will focus on extending the network to the remaining uncovered areas and upgrading existing facilities to ensure efficient operation. The corporation plans to invest an additional ?250 crore in these efforts, aiming to complete the entire project within the next two years.

Residents have welcomed the completion of Phase II, expressing relief over the expected reduction in sewage-related issues. The improved UGD system is anticipated to contribute to a cleaner and healthier environment in Trichy.

Trichy Corporation remains committed to enhancing urban infrastructure and ensuring sustainable development. The successful completion of the UGD project's second phase demonstrates the corporation's dedication to improving the quality of life for its citizens through robust and efficient infrastructure projects.
