The Greater Chennai Corporation (GCC) has established September 30 as the final deadline for road cuts by other service departments and has begun efforts to repair major road damage. Road construction activities will be prohibited after this date unless the monsoon season is delayed, in which case the deadline may be reconsidered. As of July 1, 2026, the GCC has approved 4,362 road cuts and fully restored 2,831 roads, while 501 ongoing projects involve departments like the Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board and the electricity department. Officials noted an increase in road cut requests due to restrictions during the Assembly election period and recent rainfall. Temporary repairs using plain cement concrete have led to uneven road surfaces, particularly affecting vulnerable groups like pregnant women and the elderly. The GCC plans to conduct inspections of temporary restorations and prioritize full restoration through milling and relaying, though this process will require extensive time and careful management of traffic.
