Renovation work to be carried out in twin tower complex
The Department of Transport has decided to reject the report of the Indian Institute of Technology-Madras (IIT-M) on the structural flaws in the construction of the ₹75-crore KSRTC bus terminal-cum-shopping complex in Kozhikode city.
Instead, the department will endorse the report of a five-member committee assigned to review the IIT-M report and its recommendations for further action including strengthening the complex.
An interim report mentioning the technical problems in the construction had been submitted to the department last month. The committee had also sought clarification on the 2,000-page IIT-M report which stated that the pillars of the multi-storey twin tower complex were structurally weak and required immediate strengthening.
