NHAI wants tripartite agreement on Kundannur, Vytilla flyovers; state not interested

Kochi: Even as the Palarivattom bridge episode unfolds, the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) is learnt to have asked the state government to enter into an agreement for maintenance with respect to under-construction Kundannur and Vytilla flyovers.

However, the Public Works Department (PWD) has failed to respond to the demand for a tripartite agreement so far despite the NHAI shooting off a letter six months back. Now the Central agency is all set to take a legal course to fix responsibility for maintenance of the bridges.
