Parking of two-wheelers on tactile paving on the pedestrian paths along the Karur bypass road has defeated the purpose of their formation.
When the Tiruchi Corporation upgraded the Karur bypass road from the Salai Road and Shastri Road junction to Anbil Dharmalingam statue a year ago, a provision was made in the form of tactile paving so as to facilitate the visually impaired people to walk on the pedestrian pavement on both the sides. The tactile paving was coloured with yellow painting. By sensing the tactile paving by their foots the visually impaired people could easily walk on without having to depend upon the helpers.
