KRFB plans to build a bridge on Kaloor-Kadavanthra Road in Kerala
To ensure hassle-free movement of vehicular traffic on the Kaloor-Kadavanthra Road at Kathrikadavu, the Kerala Road Fund Board (KRFB) has planned to build a bridge on the NH Bypass-Thammanam-Pullepady-M.G. Greater Cochin Development Authority (GCDA) Chairman, V. Salim, informed that the road corridor will be widened into a four-lane stretch. The alignment of the proposed corridor passed through less than 50m away from the northern end of Kathrikadavu bridge on the Kaloor-Kadavanthra Road. Prior to this, the KRFB had taken over the project to widen the corridor from the Public Works Department (PWD) A traffic survey including a ground-level survey to finalize the design of six junctions on the stretch at Chakkaraparambu on NH Bypass, Thammanam, Karnakodam, Kathrikadavu, Pullepady and Padma Junction, are over. The road will not have any curves, except probably near Thammanam market. The survey team also completed a California Bearing Ratio (CBR) study to assess the sub-grade strength of the corridor. The KIIFB, which is slated to fund the project, insists on having results of all technical tests to ensure stability and longer life of roads and pavements.
