Crown road works update

An Aurovilian specialised in construction released another update report on the current status of the Crown Road work. Noting that a member of the FO ATDC had stated that the entire 2.1km stretch of road between PTDC and Youth Centre would be completed by 31st March 2023, he pointed out that “only 47.05 m of precast RCC slabs have been badly laid”. In another report he noted that the HT cable recently laid between Auromode and Darkali does not appear to follow the Galaxy Plan, instead “meandering” to follow the existing mud roads and looping around private land. He observes that “it is obvious that this cable will have to be removed later, when the service road will be built. Thus occasioning again wastage of funds and risk to damage the cable.”
