FOB avoided like the plague
The Hindu
Pedestrians avoid the footover bridge connecting EVR Periyar Salai in Periamet and the Cooum River Bridge Road in Chintadripet like the plague. Reason: Lack of illumination, the location of a poorly maintained open toilet and the presence of tipplers make walking through the bridge after sunset unsafe. The bridge comes under the maintenance and jurisdiction of the Southern Railway.
Many pedestrians take a detour to avoid taking the bridge. The stretch abutting the tracks near the Chennai Park railway station FOB has a lone lighting facility.
