Inspection of drain at airport soon

Coimbatore: Officials from the Coimbatore Airport, Revenue Department and Coimbatore Corporation will undertake a joint inspection to study what could be done to a natural drain that flows through the airport. According to senior officials, during discussions on the airport environment meet, held a couple of days ago, the airport authorities reportedly wanted the drain closed as the sewage flowing therein attracted birds and that led to disruption in air services.

The officials said that it seemed to be a natural drain that could not be closed. It could not be even diverted, as suggested at the meeting.

To explore what could be done to the drain – clean or close with slabs and divert, as suggested – officials from various departments would conduct an inspection.
