The Konkan Railway Corporation Limited (KRCL) has floated tenders for the completion of the proposed Anakkampoyil-Kalladi-Meppadi tunnel road project. The ₹1,643-crore initiative, which will de-congest the Thamarassery Ghat Road, is expected to be a reality in four years.
The plan of KRCL, which was earlier selected as the special purpose vehicle by the State government, is to finalise a competent construction company in four months to speed up works for the twin tunnel which will cover 8.17 km. Submission of bids will be open till February 23.
