In view of the impending southwest monsoon, the district administration will be taking steps to avoid waterlogging in connection with the construction of the national highway and prevent water supply disruptions.
The instruction regarding the same was issued by Collector N. Devidas at a meeting of construction contractors, representatives of local self-government institutions (LSGIs), and officials of various departments.
Directives have been given to remove construction debris from roads to save pedestrians from accidents and take immediate action if drinking water supply is interrupted. While contactors and local bodies will ensure the construction of drains, issues related to relocation of electric poles will also be addressed.
