Tiruchi Corporation has decided to widen the existing Konakarai Road, running along Kudamuritti canal, from Woraiyur to Tiruchi-Karur highway in the city so that the road could cater to more traffic, especially four wheelers. The decision had been taken based on the instruction of Minister for Municipal Administration K.N. Nehru, who visited the spot a few days ago. The proposal, which was seen as an attempt to reduce the volume of traffic on Karur Bypass Road, is expected to receive widespread appreciation from residents of the city particularly those living in Woraiyur. They had been urging the civic body to develop the road for long. They are of the view that it will help motorists, particularly from Woraiyur, to use Konakarai Road to reach Chathram Bus Stand and nearby areas instead of travelling via Karur Bypass Road.
