I have discussed the issue with the officials to widen the service road that lies besides the flyover and allow the traffic from Kodical to go till Kuloor junction to join other end of highway. Meanwhile, there are options of introducing U turn from other side on the highway. The officers are advised to work in this regard,’ said Ivan.
