Erection of median on Kamarajar Salai between Keezhavasal junction and Teppakulam has evoked mixed reaction among city residents. Following frequent road accidents, including fatal accidents on Kamarajar Salai, National Highways officials put up concrete blocks to lay median on the 3 km stretch of busy road recently. Besides, the road was widened edge-to-edge by three to five metres. However, people have started to complain as only seven openings have been provided for the vehicles to make right turn on the highly commercialized stretch of the road. “This stretch of road had many black spots due to road accidents and it required median to avoid head on collisions,” said a highways official. People are used to haphazard parking of small and big vehicles on the carriage way blocking free flow of traffic. “When vehicles overtake parked vehicles they encroach into the opposite lane and result in accidents,” a constable said.More Related News
