Coimbatore Corporation Conducts Survey for Metro Rail Road Expansion

The Coimbatore Corporation has launched a survey to facilitate road expansion along Sathyamangalam Road (NH-948) as part of the Coimbatore Metro Rail project. 

In the initial phase, the survey covers a 1.2 km stretch from Textool Bridge to Old Ganapathy Road, mapping land and underground utilities, including drinking water pipelines, underground drainage (UGD) pipes, gas pipelines, network cables, and electricity lines. 

A Corporation official stated that an earlier 20-meter survey was conducted for the National Highways Department’s road expansion plan, but with the Metro Rail project advancing, a fresh 30-meter survey is now underway. The survey is expected to be completed within a month and will be submitted to the State government for review. 

Additionally, the civic body recently carried out a utility mapping survey at Ukkadam Bus Stand. The Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) has allocated Rs 20 million to the Corporation for conducting the survey. 

Once finalized, all stakeholders, including the Highways Department, CMRL, Coimbatore Corporation, and the Public Works Department, will review the findings before proceeding with further development.
