Putting an end to the long wait, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan opened the Guruvayur railway overbridge for traffic on Tuesday night.
The railway overbridge is expected to end the perennial traffic block near the railway crossing at Guruvayur. The railway crossing at the heart of the temple town used to close around 30 times in a day. The rail overbridge was a long-pending demand of elected representatives and people of Guruvayur.
“The development of the State and welfare of people are the prime considerations of the Left Democratic Front government. The overbridge is a fitting reply for people who oppose the KIIFB (Kerala Infrastructure Investment Fund Board) and its projects. Many of the State’s development projects were implemented using the KIIFB fund,” Mr. Vijayan said.
