Construction of Kumbalam-Thevara Bridge to Begin Soon

The Kerala Road Fund Board (KRFB) has announced that construction of the much-anticipated Kumbalam-Thevara bridge will commence shortly. Officials confirmed that land acquisition for the approach road is nearly complete, paving the way for work to begin within weeks.
The bridge is set to significantly improve regional connectivity by reducing the travel distance between Kumbalam and Thevara by almost 10 km, cutting commute times by around 30 minutes. It is also expected to ease traffic congestion across key city routes and offer smoother access for residents of Kumbalam, Aroor, Nettoor, and Thevara.
