The nine ‘black spots’ were identified after carefully examining the data pertaining to accidents reported within the city limits in the last three to four years.
The spots where accidents were reported to be frequent include: Sanjeevi Nagar junction along the Chennai Bypass Road; 'Y' road junction close to the city border; Kollidam bypass junction; Edamalaipattipudur Junction; Karur bypass road junction; Mekkudi junction; SIT Junction along the Tiruchi - Thanjavur national highway and Edamalaipattipudur-Madurai Bypass junction.
The election authorities are gearing up for the counting of votes cast in the simultaneous elections to Lok Sabha and Assembly seats in Andhra Pradesh, scheduled to be held on June 4. The Collectors and Election Officers of Visakhapatnam, Anakapalli and Alluri Sitharama Raju (ASR) districts said on May 23 (Thursday) that their teams were ready for the counting of votes.
Responding to the prolonged water scarcity, the residents of the area took to the streets in protest on Wednesday. The protest, which drew attention to their plight, stopped only after the intervention of the police. It was not until 1.30 p.m. that a 4000-litre tanker was finally delivered by BWSSB, providing relief to the water-starved residents.
