Coimbatore Corporation announced a programme to re-lay 1,847 roads across the city for road renewal. The civic body said the project carries an estimated cost of Rs 106.55 crore, equal to Rs 1,065.5 million (mn) or Rs 1.0655 billion (bn). The works are intended to address surface deterioration and improve drainage and traffic flow. The plan will be implemented in phases with priority for arterial and residential streets; officials expect minimal disruption and overall benefits. The corporation indicated that detailed estimates and tender processes will follow council approval and budget allotment. Local engineers will assess subgrade conditions to determine whether full reconstruction is required or if resurfacing will suffice on less damaged sections. The exercise is expected to enhance vehicular mobility, reduce maintenance costs in the medium term and improve pedestrian safety where footpaths are upgraded. Residents will be alerted in advance about road closures and diversions through public notices. Funding for the project has been allocated from the municipal capital works budget and will be disbursed according to stagewise completion of contracts. The engineering wing will be responsible for quality control and periodic inspections to ensure materials and workmanship meet specifications. Contractors will be required to maintain sections under repair for a specified defect liability period and to restore any utilities affected during work. The corporation will publish progress reports for public accountability regularly. Municipal officials indicated that achieving sustained road quality will depend on routine maintenance and timely drainage cleaning ahead of monsoon seasons. Community feedback will be solicited through ward offices to identify priority stretches and to coordinate work with street-level stakeholders. Officials noted that the extent of re-laying reflects a response to accumulated wear rather than a single incident and that the initiative aims to reduce long-term expenditure on emergency repairs. Commuters will face minimal inconvenience.
