Residents at Sadayankuppam, Thiruverkadu resort to temporary structures

The work on a bridge that would have made their lives much more convenient began two years ago. But even today, residents of Thiruverkadu are forced to use a narrow causeway to cross the Cooum as the work remains incomplete. For residents in and around Sadayankuppam, a rickety wooden structure is their only option to cross the Buckingham canal. These two localities are just some of the few where work on vital infrastructure projects has been stalled as land acquisition has not been completed.
