Coimbatore Corporation Shifts Waste Facility Site After Public Objections

The Coimbatore Corporation will relocate a proposed waste transfer station from Kovaipudur to Sugunapuram West following public objections. Residents cited concerns over odor and health risks, noting a nearby micro-composting center and the area's residential nature. The Corporation, initially planning the 200-tonne capacity facility at a cost of 9 crore under Swachh Bharat Mission 2.0, agreed to shift the project after officials inspected the site and heard resident grievances.
