Tiruchi Corporation has transformed three more garbage vulnerable points (GVPs) across the city into beautified public spaces as part of its ongoing sanitation drive.
A garbage hotspot near Nagappa Swamy Kovil in Kattur, Ward 39, under Zone III, has been transformed into a visually appealing spot with vibrant wall murals. The location, situated near a ration shop and close to a transformer, had long been used as a mini dumping site by residents.
Similarly, another vulnerable point at Keelapudur Main Road, near the clock tower corner in Ward 34 under Zone II, has been reclaimed. The site had witnessed indiscriminate dumping of household waste, with cattle frequently seen rummaging through the garbage. The Corporation fenced the area and adorned the walls with mural paintings to prevent further dumping and improve the surroundings.
Meanwhile, beautification work is underway at a garbage hotspot adjacent to a private school in Woraiyur in Ward 9 under Zone V. The work is expected to be completed within a week, according to a Corporation official.
In addition, four more hotspots in Wards 9, 12, 32 and 64 have been identified for transformation in the coming months.
