Land acquisition issues had delayed work on the bridge over Vembanad Lake
The construction of the Nerekadavu- Makkekadavu bridge over Vembanad Lake connecting Kottayam and Alappuzha districts will be resumed. Officials said here on Monday that the issues pertaining to land acquisition had been resolved. The Revenue Department has started the process of acquiring land for the construction of approach roads by paying compensation to landowners before September. “After completing all the process, the land will be handed over to the Public Works Department in September. It will help restart construction of the bridge,” said an official.More Related News
