Cracks due to foundation work carried out for 17-storeyed residential project taken up on same road
DAYS after the first crack emerged on Sheshadripuram First Main Road in Velachery, residents have now started noticing new cracks that have started developing in the premises of two apartments on the same street.
According to corporation officials, the cracks were due to the foundation work carried out for a 17-storeyed residential project taken up on the same road by a private developer. Work using heavy machinery was halted after the cracks first appeared but filling work continued. The portion of the cracked road has been barricaded from vehicular movement, the officials said. With the road yet to be fixed, residents of the street are forced to take the longer route to reach the Perungudi Railway Station.
