2. The road from PCR Junction up to SV Engineering College-railway gate has been repaired and resurfaced. Now the road is smooth and motorable.

3. New butterfly lighting has been installed on the divider at railway under bridge in kattamanchi.(But this is a very small stretch. Why not extend this divider upto sugar factory by little road widening and install central lighting for the entire stretch.
