Summary:
more-inThe city police have held discussions with the management of Kovai Medical Center and Hospital (KMCH) on reducing accidents involving pedestrians in front of the hospital. When contacted, KMCH sources said that the management was ready to erect a skywalk for the safety of pedestrians. “We have put forward two suggestions - a skywalk across Avinashi Road and setting up of a blinking signal to reduce the speed. The measure was taken after two pedestrians were hit by speeding vehicles while they were crossing the Avinashi road in front of the hospital. While there was adequate area for the landing of skywalk inside the hospital premises, landing on the other side remains an issue due to less space..
