KOCHI: Just two years after its inauguration, the Kundanoor flyover’s retention wall has slanted and sunk two feet, causing significant concern. Despite authorities claiming that there is no need to worry, a soil test was conducted surreptitiously at the site.
The evident sinking of the approach road, retention wall, and flyover by two feet is undeniably alarming. The flyover was opened for traffic in 2021, along with the Vyttila flyover. While the Roads and Bridges Development Corporation of Kerala Ltd (RBDCK) claims that the soil testing was carried out under the supervision of the PWD executive engineer (bridges), sources from the PWD suggest that the procedure might have been conducted by a consultancy appointed by the contractor.
