Kovalam-Mukkola NH-66 bypass stretch likely to open Thursday

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Utter confusion prevailed over opening the Kovalam-Mukkola road of the NH-66 bypass to traffic even after a meeting chaired by the District Collector Geromic George decided to open the road on Monday. Though the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) attempted to open the 4.1-km road on Monday, it was stopped by the police citing that the road could be opened only after installing sign boards.
