Makeover for Harington Road- Chennai
Call it the need of the hour or the much needed aspect of development, civic officials have woken up to the fact that Amma’s city needs a make over, come what may. It was on Saturday when residents along Harington noticed the first signs of development, a make over to begin with happening.
Sources opine a total of INR 9.9crores as a project has begun which aims at making the famous Harrington stretch into a model zone. This would have complete manicuring treatments given, where the roads would be concretized and granite footpaths would be laid, along with world class ducts in place for electricity cables. The greenery around too would be upped and the initiatives for the same are well planned as well.
Traffic sources are working on the diversions as of now, and getting things in place. Sources say it wasn’t easy coming to the decision of Harington’s makeover, specially when many long hours of meetings and fundraisers happen, not to forget the undying spirit and persistence of the residents around.
A year and a half back is when it all began, and the streets were in a bad condition, say residents. The Chennai corporation was asked to help and the interest was shown, but the proposal and road survey was to be made and done at first, says a source from Harrington Road Residents Association.
