Summary:
Thiruvananthapuram: As the second phase of Kazhakkoottam-Karode NH widening works is progressing, residents of Plavila have objected to digging up of a road in the region for the works. The bypass is supposed to cut through Kinattadi-Thazhankaadu Road which was constructed as part of Pradhan Manthri Sadak Yojana. We will protest until the demand for the overbridge is met,” Rao said. We will have to go all the way towards Vengapotta, which is 2.5km away, to cross the bypass and further travel another 2km to reach Nellimoodu. This means, connectivity between Marapallam and Nellimoodu will be affected..
