Rampant encroachments undermine Tiruchi’s smart pavements

Indiscriminate parking of vehicles and rampant encroachments on pavements continue to be a persistent problem in Tiruchi, posing challenges to pedestrian safety and smooth traffic flow across the city.

Periodic enforcement by the Tiruchi Corporation and the city police has not resolved haphazard parking on arterial roads and commercial stretches. Vehicles often block pavements, forcing pedestrians onto the road and increasing traffic risks.
