People’s convention at Cheranelloor demanding construction of underpasses
The HinduPeople ‘affected’ by the development of NH 66 at Cheranelloor have, under the banner of Highway Avakasha Samrakshana Samithi, demanded that the National Highways Authority of India build underpasses every one-km distance in densely populated areas. They have alleged that the development of the highway corridor has led to the 2.4-km Kunnumpuram-Container Junction stretch turning into a wall, hampering the movement of people from either side. A people’s convention will be held at Thykavu Junction at 6 p.m. on Saturday to demand underpasses and to protest against the ‘denial’ of free movement of residents and others. In this situation, the NHAI must take speedy steps to build underpasses at Thykavu and GLPS Road Junction, said the samithi, a conclave of political, religious, cultural and trader organisations.
