THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The state’s financial crunch is likely to pose a hurdle to the development of road connectivity between Vizhinjam International Seaport and the nearby NH 66. While the concessionaire, Adani Group, is developing the road, the land needed for the work — 42 cents of land from four sides of the NH 66 — has to be acquired by the state government.
The government is planning to commission the under-construction port by May next year and the work on the road at the ground level from the site is also nearing completion.
