Government guidelines on road laying, subway closure issues, road patch work, superstition grip, road relaying problems, and eateries cleanliness in Madurai.

Ensure that milling is carried out

The government has issued guidelines on road laying - to first mill the older road surface before relaying it so as to maintain the road level on a par with the houses along either side. But, despite these guidelines, contractors involved in road relaying neglect the process of milling which in turn affects the residences as they go below the road level over a period of time. Hence, the officials concerned must ensure that the contractors follow the process of milling before relaying a road.

Keep the subway near GRH open

A pedestrian subway which was built at a cost of lakhs of public money in front of the main entrance of Government Rajaji Hospital in Goripalayam remains closed for years. Now, the general public and outpatients have to wait for a long time to cross the road. Heavy vehicular traffic on this road adds to the hardships for them. It would be very helpful if the subway is kept open. I request the authorities concerned to make efforts to this effect.
