Bad roads trouble C'atore commuters at busy junction

In Coimbatore, the Ramanathapuram Junction bad roads are bothering the commuters. The Trichy Road stretch at the Junction was cut across by a trench-like structure to take an underground drainage pipeline to the southern end of the Road. It was closed two days ago, thanks to repeated complaints from the area residents and road users. Upon turning south on to the Nanjundapuram Road, the road user encounters a narrow stretch, made narrower by parked vehicles on the southern side.

After the recent rains, to fill up potholes, the Corporation had dumped gravel but that had not helped as water continued to stagnate there. The stretch of the Nanjundapuram Road near the Ramanathapuram Junction had been in a bad condition for quite sometime and it turned worse with the recent rains, complained K. Kuppusamy, a resident of the nearby Nethaji Nagar.
