Traffic Signals Remain Inactive at Chennai Junction
At the four-way Cooks Road-Stephenson Road junction in Chennai, traffic signals have remained inactive since their installation, posing a challenge for traffic police managing the intersection. Despite repeated attempts, the signals have not been activated, leading to confusion and increased risk for commuters. The lack of agency response has perpetuated the issue, leaving commuters relying on caution and vigilance while navigating the junction.
The opening of the Stephenson Road Chengai Sivam Bridge further highlights the importance of functional traffic management systems in the area, underscoring the need for urgent action to address the non-operational signals. The responsibility for regulating traffic at the junction falls on the traffic wing of the Pulianthope police, emphasizing the need for coordination and intervention from relevant authorities to rectify the situation.
