Mangaluru: Thokkottu flyover was inaugurated by MP Nalin Kumar Kateel here on Thursday, June 13.

Nalin Kumar Kateel broke coconut at both the lanes of the flyover and also at Nagabrahma Kattte at Kallapu and prayed for the safety of the commuters.

Speaking on the occasion, Nalin Kumar Kateel said that there were many criticisms for the delay in completion of the project. “The project was being delayed in the past four years due to technical problems. The company, Navayug was facing financial problems. Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari granted a loan of Rs. 55 crores to complete the project,” he added.

“Due to legal issues the Thokkottu flyover was delayed by two years. The flyover was inaugurated even though some legal issues were still pending as it would be a great relief to the people of Thokkottu and the motorists,” added the MP.

“The beautification of the flyover will be done shortly. Vehicle parking, garden, toilet and auto parking would be ready in the coming days,” assured Kateel.

He said that instructions have been given to Navyug to complete the work of Pumpwell flyover immediately. “If the rain allows then Pumpwell flyover too will be ready soon,” Kateel added.

“The laying of humps on the Ullal road and Kallapu service roads will be done in a few days’ time,” said traffic ACP Manjunath. Speaking to reporters, Traffic ACP Manjunath said that he has already instructed the engineers of Navyug to construct humps on the roads and install barricades on both sides of the flyover.

Bharatiya Janata Dal (BJP) area president Santosh Rai Boliar, district chief secretary Sathish Kumpala, former MLA Jayaram Shetty, district vice president Chandrahas Ullal and other BJP leaders were present at the venue.
