The refurbishment works of C.H. Flyover in Mananchira may take more time than expected for its completion. Minister for Public Works P.A. Mohamed Riyas told reporters here on Sunday that ₹4.22 crore has already been sanctioned for the work that is expected to be completed by November 2023.
The flyover, that connects Bank road with the Kozhikode beach across the railway track, was closed for maintenance on June 13 and the works were expected to be completed in two months. This has led to serious traffic issues in the city. However, the works cannot be completed in a hurry as it pertains to safety, the Minister said.
Mr. Riyas announced a ₹12.6 crore package for maintenance works in different parts of the district.
