Flyover constructed at Thokkottu is unscientific: District In-charge Minister U T Khader

June 4: District in Charge Minister U T Khader along with Deputy Commissioner Sasikanth Senthil S, inspected the flyover and directed the NHAI and Navayug officials to rectify the problems faced by the local residents.
He instructed that the pedestrian path should be constructed for people to walk beside the road and the service road should be widened to facilitate easy movement of vehicles. Minister Khader said that the density of vehicles moving towards Ullal is high. Motorists who are bound to Ullal have to risk their lives owing to the unscientific work. There is a need to find a permanent solution to the problem encountered by motorists at Thokkottu overbridge where the flyover ends.
He even mentioned that a road divider should be opened at Gatti Samaja Bhavana in Kapikadu, situated 150 metres away from th flyover, to help commuters take a U-turn towards Ullal. Along with this speed breakers should be installed on the road.
The Minister promised to convene a meeting of the deputy commissioner and the MP to find a permanent solution to the problems of the local residents.
