Due to the ongoing overpass work at Santhekatte, vehicle drivers and locals have been facing issues. “Udayavani” had published a series of reports on this issue. Following these reports, the MP had held a meeting with district and highway authority officials but noted no changes. Hence, another meeting was held on Saturday at the district office, led by the Regional Officer of the Highway Authority.
Instructions to Revise Map
The Member of Parliament (MP) instructed the officials to update the design of the underpass at Ambalapady Circle, based on the Karavali Bypass model. The current design has too narrow, so it needs to be revised, and a new estimated map should be prepared. The highway authorities were also told to create a wider underpass that does not obstruct vehicle movement.
