Encroachments and Damaged Roads in Anna Nagar Cause Disruption

Anna Nagar’s once-quiet residential streets have turned commercial, increasing noise and vehicular congestion. Encroachments by shops and street vendors on pedestrian pathways along major avenues force pedestrians onto busy roads, creating traffic chaos. Despite efforts by Chennai Corporation and traffic police to clear these encroachments, they persistently return.

Additionally, recent digging for sewer connections has damaged roads in Manapakkam and Mugalivakkam, causing significant inconvenience to motorists. Residents urge the Corporation to find a permanent solution for both encroachments and road repairs before the monsoon season.
