The government will soon invite a consultancy for drawing up a detailed plan for the development of the proposed underpass. Apart from developing the proposed new underpass, the existing narrow one at Ponnurunni will be widened for facilitating smooth two-way traffic. The proposed second phase is aimed at addressing the concerns expressed by various quarters about limiting the work to the construction of a unidirectional flyover.
