Traffic along 120-year-old iron bridge in Thripunithura has been restricted to two-wheelers for over a year
The Public Works Department (PWD) has resubmitted the proposal for a new bridge replacing the more-than-a-century-old iron bridge at Thripunithura after the proposal failed to receive administrative sanction from the government when it was originally submitted in October 2019.
The new bridge, which is estimated to cost ₹29 crore, was included in the list of 26 new bridges planned across the State after Thripunithura MLA M. Swaraj raised the issue in the Assembly as a submission a few months back.
