Widen road
There are traffic signals near the newly-built Palayamkottai bus stand. Many times buses and other vehicles plying towards Murugankurichi form a long queue during the red signal. Due to this, vehicle movement towards Tirunelveli New Bus Stand is completely blocked, though the signal meant for this direction shows green. Particularly during peak hours, autos and other vehicles carrying school children make use of a congested space available in a risky manner to travel towards Kulavanigarpuram railway gate. Before demolition of the bus stand, the road adjacent to it was broad enough to allow simultaneous movement of buses towards Murugankurichi and Tirunelveli New Bus Stand. I request the authorities concerned to widen that road to facilitate free movement of vehicles.

No bus shelters
There are no bus shelters at Valukanparai, Ethenkadu and Pottraiady on Nagercoil - Kanniyakumari highway. Passengers stand under a scorching sun in all these places. Hence I request the authorities concerned to construct bus shelters at these places on both the sides of the four-lane national highway.
