The realigned portion of Indira
Gandhi Road (IG Road), Willingdon Island from Mattancherry Halt to International Ship Repair Facility (ISRF) Junction (600 mtrs) was inaugurated today.
Cochin Port Trust Chairman P Raveendran opened the road in the presence of senior officials including Dy Chairman A V Ramana and Chief Engineer G Vaidyanathan.
IG Road is the main road connectivity to the port area in Willingdon Island.
The realignment was necessitated for handing over the land between CIFT Junction and Old Workshop to Cochin Shipyard Ltd for second stage development of ISRF.
The work was carried out at a cost of Rs 2.97 crores in a period of nine months.
It was completed before the stipulated date of completion.
The road will be opened for public transport shortly.
