NHAI to study Kallumthazh railway overbridges and road project in Kollam

The National Highways Authority of India will conduct a direct technical study on building two railway overbridges and a connecting road to ease traffic congestion at Kallumthazh in Kollam. The decision follows discussions between MP N.K. Premachandran and NHAI officials. The study was requested after a meeting chaired by the MP, where a decision was made to appoint a consultancy for a feasibility study. The NHAI is responsible for constructing railway overbridges on national highways, and has now assured it will conduct the study directly. The MP has urged the authority to complete the technical study and make a decision urgently. An expert committee from T.K.M. College had previously been tasked with studying solutions for the traffic issue.
