Thiruvananthapuram: Palarivattom flyover to be fully reconstructed

Thiruvananthapuram: The controversial Palarivattom flyover in Kochi will be rebuilt as per the recommendation made by Metroman E. Sreedharan.

“Sreedharan has said that renovation or strengthening it was not a feasible option. We have accepted this recommendation and hence decided to rebuild the bridge,” Chief Min-ister Pinarayi Vijayan said on Monday. “The existing structure will be demolished. Sreedh-aran has been given the charge of overall supervision of the project. The design and estimates will be submitted by Sreedharan in a few days,” Vijayan added.
