Structures for nine of the 14 proposed galleries along the Marina as part of the beach beautification project have been completed.
Besides landscaping work, two of the four proposed toilet blocks have also been completed, a Chennai Corporation official told The Hindu. With nearly 40 per cent of the work done, this stretch was likely to be ready in six months, the official said. The stretch from Rajaji Salai to Napier Bridge would be ready latest by August 15, as at least 60 per cent of the work had been completed.
More toilet blocks in the proposed parking lot and other areas are coming up. Work is progressing on footpaths, a sunken court and paved platform. Three islands near the War Memorial building are also being built.
The Corporation had planned new pathways, service lanes, landscaped lawns and seating for visitors at the beach. Renovation of parking lots, lawns, footpaths and service lanes between Kamarajar Salai and the beach are part of the proposals for the three-km stretch.
