CHENNAI: The Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) has confirmed that the repair work on Arcot Road, the main road connecting Porur, Vadapalani and Kodambakkam will be completed within a week.
As per the CMRL press note, contractor, Larsen and Toubro (L&T), is working on the road repair work in the areas such as Vadapalani, Saligramam, Valasaravakkam, Alwar Thirunagar, Karambakkam and Alapakkam.
As Arcot Road in the Valasaravakkam area has been damaged due to overflowing sewer water, occasional rains, and other departmental works on the roadside, the Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (CMWSSB) and L&T are working together to clean the sewage water that fills the manhole.
