THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The works of the hill highway passing through Parassala in the capital has resumed. The new contractor, the Uralungal Labour Contract Cooperative Society has started the survey for tarring the first stretch – the 15.70-km-long Parassala-Kudappanamoodu road. The original deadline for completing the first stretch was December 12, 2020. Unfortunately, it couldn’t be met due to the untimely death of the first contractor. The work of the first stretch was assigned to Sukumaran, a contractor and retired engineer of the Works Department.
