Three more pelican signals to many ups on tiruchy road

COIMBATORE: Giving top priority for pedestrian safety, the city police have planned to install three more pelican crossing signals on Tiruchy Road.

Conventional signals have been replaced with roundabouts and U-turns at many parts of the city. While conventional signals may be useful for vehicular traffic, pedestrians struggle to cross the road. To manage the issue, the Coimbatore city police installed pelican signal at several places mostly on the arterial stretch of Avinashi Road. As many as 13 pelican signals have been installed in the city.
