THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Even though the corporation had proposed to invite Expression of Interest (EOI) to install street lights on the NH66 bypass from Kazhakoottam to Kovalam, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has put forth a suggestion that it has provisions to install street lights on the junctions with the support of the corporation.
In his letter to Mayor S Arya Rajendran, NHAI project director P Pradeep stated it could install the lamps provided the corporation took care of the maintenance. The NHAI has also requested the corporation to provide electricity connection as part of the proposal. Meanwhile, the corporation will go ahead with inviting EOI as the NHAI’s proposal is confined to street lights at junctions.
