The traffic diversion signage should be mounted at Mulki, Moodbidri, Haleyangady, Surathkal, Panambur and KIOCL Junction for the benefit of drivers. Suitable streetlights should be installed on the new bridge to facilitate the movement of vehicles during night hours.
The heavy vehicles going to Bangalore should travel via Padubidri-Karkala-Bengaluru. Similarly, heavy vehicles from Udupi to Mangaluru should travel via Mulki-Kinnigoli-Moodbidri-Mangalore and from Haleyangady-Kinnigoli-Moodbidri-Surathkal-Bajpe.
