Kochi hops on a Smart Road ride
KOCHI: Imagine a city road with LED lights, medians, cycle tracks, walkways for pedestrians and tactile facilities for vision-impaired people. As ambitious as it may sound, smart roads like these may soon be a reality for Kochiites. With Cochin Smart Mission Limited (CSML) expediting the ‘Smart Road’ project, six stretches in the city will soon get a facelift. While the work is nearing completion on the Abraham Madamakkal Road (from Chathiyath road to High Court Junction), drain-laying work has already begun at Shanmugham Road and DH Road.
