By Our Staff ReporterChennai Corporation has fast-tracked the

work of repairing the carriageway of Aranga-nathan subway that connects CIT Nagar withWest Mambalam and Saidapet.

The badly damaged surface is being replacedwith a concrete one. Relaying work, which wastaken up two weeks back on the lane of thesubway leading to Ashok Pillar, is nearingcompletion. To prevent congestion on otheralternative routes, the other lane towardsMambalam has been made 2-way and policemenhave been deployed to regulate traffic.

Measures are also under way to prevent waterstagnation in the subway.

According to Corporation officials, during heavy

Renovation of Aranganathan subwayfast-tracked

rains, the subway gets flooded mainly due to the clogging of storm water drains along the subway, which prevents excessrainwater from the drain from flowing freely into the nearby canal. Now, under the renovation project, the existing storm water

drains will be cleaned, closedand replaced with pipelinesconnecting the drainage pitswith the nearby canal. Theysaid that tiles will also be fixedon the subway walls to preventseepage. “The work is expectedto be completed in a month,” headded.
