Apart from beach road residents, others from MVP Colony and other areas also had voiced their opposition to the projects,” VARWA general secretary B.B. NIVAS president Pitta Narayana Murthy said digging up the road for underground parking might result in further erosion of the beach. The underground parking was mooted in view of the expected 70,000 visitors to the proposed LuLu Mall and hotel, he alleged. “We fear that further development of Ramakrishna Beach and the museum will reduce the free access to the beach as entry tickets might be introduced in the future,” he said, adding that the government rather plan development in other stretches of the 40-km-long Beach Road. Traffic woes“One acre from the land allotted to the LuLu Group should be used to construct a multi-level parking facility, which would offer a permanent solution of the never-ending traffic woes on the Beach Road,” VARWA president Prakasa Rao said.
