Trenching of SA Road triggers fears of traffic snarls at Vyttila
The Hindu
The road was fully resurfaced by KMRL just over a year ago
Barricading of the Vyttila Janatha-Vyttila Junction corridor on SA Road to trench a portion of the fast track of the road to lay CNG pipelines has given rise to fear that traffic snarls will reappear at Vyttila.
Even worse, trenching has been proposed on the road that was fully resurfaced by Kochi Metro Rail Limited (KMRL) just over a year ago after completion of the metro’s Pettah extension.
It was a fortnight ago that movement of vehicles through the junction was streamlined, following redirecting of vehicles from the Palarivattom side. The aim was to lessen traffic hold-ups on SA Road, where the queue of vehicles often extended up to the Elamkulam bridge during peak hours.
