Legal hurdles stall construction of Kazhakoottam elevated highway
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Even as the construction of the much-touted elevated highway from Technopark phase – III to Kazhakoottam junction is progressing at a fast pace, the work at Kazhakoottam junction has been stalled due to legal hurdles.
Construction work from Kazhakoottam junction to CSI Mission hospital was brought to a halt after traders secured a stay order against land acquisition for the project, demanding rehabilitation and compensation. The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has not been able to resume the work even after 30 days.
