Unauthorised Parking Under Overbridges Disrupts Traffic Flow in Tiruchi

Vehicles are increasingly being parked illegally beneath overbridges across Tiruchi, reducing road space and causing traffic congestion. The problem is particularly acute during peak hours near busy junctions and commercial areas where road capacity is already limited. Civic activists and residents are calling for authorities to regulate the practice and designate proper parking facilities.
Unauthorised parking beneath overbridges in Tiruchi has become a growing traffic concern, with two-wheelers, cars, autorickshaws, and abandoned vehicles occupying portions of the carriageway intended for moving traffic. The practice is especially problematic during peak hours and near busy junctions and commercial areas where road space is already constrained. Residents report that parked vehicles force motorists to slow down and navigate through narrow gaps, creating traffic bottlenecks and increasing accident risk. Civic activists have urged the Tiruchi Corporation to regulate parking beneath overbridges, identify designated parking facilities nearby, and explore planned utilisation of vacant spaces under bridges. Corporation officials stated that measures to regulate encroachments are under examination, with efforts underway at certain locations to improve space utilisation and ensure smoother traffic movement.
