Mangaluru: Vehicular movement suspended after Maravoor bridge develops cracks

Mangaluru: Maravoor bridge that connects to the Mangalore International airport developed a crack due to heavy rain that lashed on  Tuesday, June 15.

Reportedly the crack is so deep and wide that there is every possibility that the bridge might collapse at any time.

Keeping in mind the safety of the people vehicular movement has been canceled on the bridge.

Traffic is diverted to two alternative routes. Those who want to go to other side of the Marvoor bridge from Kavoor can either use Kavoor-Kulur-KBS Jokatte-Porkody-Bajpe route or Pacchanady-Vamanjoor-Gurpur-Kaikamba-Bajpe route.
