Another corridor of NH 66 opened

Overcoming several hurdles, the four-lane 4.5-km corridor from Pravachambalam to Kodinada of the 29.2-km Karamana-Kaliyikkavila stretch of the National Highway 66 was opened for traffic on Thursday. Commissioning the stretch through videoconferencing at a function organised at Pravachambalam Junction, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan said the government had been able to undertake NH development by acquiring land and overcoming delays. Even infra projects that had been abandoned were being executed and roads and bridges were being completed on a time-bound manner.
