2-wheelers misuse pedestrian path under UsmanRoad flyover

Sir, Following theconstruction ofUsman Road flyoverin T. Nagar, crossingthe road beneath theflyover has become adifficult task.

If the residents ofthe streets abuttingUsman Road want tocross, they now haveto go either to Ranga-

nathan Street junction or use the narrow pathway diagonally oppo-site Venkatasean Street/Rangan Street junction.

This pathway, which is meant for the exclusive use of thepedestrians, is being misused by two-wheeler riders. They use it as ashort cut instead of using the wide space available opposite GRT andChennai Silks. Further, the pathway is also crowded with shoppersbuying goods spread by roadside vendors/hawkers beneath the flyover.

As walking itself is an uphill task on the crowded path, the 2-wheelersplying on them pose a danger. Further, the road is also riddled withobstacles like protruding manhole covers, bolts and nuts in severalspots. The other day, a 2-wheeler rider hit a pedestrian causinggrievous injury.

The authorities should erect barricades at both ends of the pathwayto prevent 2-wheelers from entering it. Only this will ensure the safetyof the pedestrians crossing the road under the flyover. V. S. Jayaraman,31, Motilal Street, T. Nagar

Drain cover damaged by passing vehiclesSir, There is an open

manhole chamber inthe middle of AnandanStreet, near NorthUsman Road, T.Nagar. Traffic policehave kept a barricadeon top of the chamberto caution motorists

The cover of thedrain often gets dam-aged as heavy vehiclesrun over it. The coverhad sunk into thechamber almost amonth back, and is yetto be replaced.

I appeal to Metro-water officials to cover

the opening immediately to prevent any untoward incident and also tostrengthen the mouth of the chamber to ensure that its cover does notget damaged by vehicles passing over it. Venkatraman, AnandanStreet, T. Nagar
