Description

Description

The Avinashi Road flyover project in Coimbatore originally included five pedestrian subways as part of a ₹1,621.30 crore plan. However, a revised estimate of ₹1,791.22 crore approved on July 12, 2024, excluded these pedestrian crossings without justification, raising public safety concerns. The project also included a foot overbridge near PSG College at the request of a private institution, but omitted similar provisions for the public. The Coimbatore district collector instructed the highways department to include pedestrian crossings with lifts, but the revised plan was approved without these provisions. The consumer forum demands the construction of all five originally proposed subways or foot overbridges with lift facilities to ensure accessibility.
