Chennai: Avichi School bus stop at Virugumbakkam is a busy stretch. School and college students and office-goers cross the road to reach the other side. There is a traffic signal, but it does not function. As a result, people are forced to cross the road risking their lives.
A resident, Durai Swami, says, “Avichi School is an important school in the neighbourhood. Having no signal here is a big issue.”
Sharing his concern, Jojo, another resident said, “Students face a lot of difficulties. Despite repeated requests, no measures have been taken so far.” Residents hope that the issue will be solved soon by the traffic department.
