Manavala Nagar residents campaign against Putlur sewage pollution

The Hindu · · Infrastructure

Chennai residents near Putlur check dam use cartoons to raise awareness about sewage polluting the Cooum river and threatening groundwater recharge.

Key facts

Residents of Manavala Nagar near Putlur check dam in Tiruvallur district, about 40 km from Chennai, launched cartoon campaign titled 'Koovam Kudineer' to highlight sewage pollution in upper reaches of Cooum river. The clean stretch near the check dam is degrading due to raw sewage release from urbanising areas. Cooum river is a significant groundwater recharge source for the locality. Sewage discharge affects both the river and Vengathur lake. Manavala Nagar Residents' Welfare Association met Tiruvallur MLA T. Arunkumar requesting operation of dysfunctional Periakuppam sewage treatment plant and increased sewage treatment capacity. Residents stressed need for urgent measures to protect groundwater recharge zones. Cartoons explain network of check dams and connection between Cooum river and Chembarambakkam reservoir, one of Chennai's drinking water sources.

Sevvapet Railway Overbridge Remains Incomplete After More Than a Decade

dtnext · · Infrastructure

The Sevvapet railway overbridge remains unfinished, forcing commuters from five to six villages onto diversions of nearly six kilometres.

Key facts

The railway overbridge near Sevvapet railway station, linking Aranvoyal Road and Thiruvur Road and serving as a bypass for 5–6 villages, remains incomplete more than a decade after work began. Without it, commuters face a diversion of nearly 6 km, often via Putlur. Southern Railway completed its portion in 2016, but State Highways work was delayed by land acquisition, litigation and an interim court injunction; the schedule was pushed to 2021. Residents say the unfinished bridge has hindered emergency access, contributed to fatal accidents as people attempt to cross tracks, and hurt local businesses. The Sevvapet subway is an alternative, but residents report poor road conditions and inadequate construction staffing. A new subway is also being built near the station. The Highways Department says about 80% of the project is complete, including 16 of 17 bridge decks; remaining work is expected to finish within 2–3 months, after which the bridge can open.
