Redevelopment of Vyttila Junction hangs in the balance

Uncertainty hangs over the redevelopment of Vyttila Junction in order to end the worsening traffic chaos, with the PWD that built a six-lane flyover over three years ago at what is the biggest junction in Kerala, and other agencies not coming up with any concrete proposal in this regard. Apart from motorists, Vyttila Vikasana Samiti, Vyttila Bus Terminal Neighbours’ Association, Ernakulam District Residents Associations’ Apex Council and many others had been demanding fast-tracking of measures to implement at least short-term measures. In addition, the two-lane Vyttila-Kunnara Park stretch in the Vyttila-Pettah Road owned by PWD was to be widened to four lane, since all other roads that take off from the junction have four-lane width. “Vehicles from S.A. Road towards Alappuzha could go straight and take the road beside Power House to re-enter NH Bypass on the southern side of the flyover.
