LATEST ON METRO RAIL KOCHI!The land acquisition process for the Metro Rail Kochi will start soon probably next week. The district Collector of Ernakulam is waiting for the orders from the Government of Kerala for freezing the land buying and selling proceedings around the areas through which the Metro will pass through!
This system of transport is absolutely inevitable for the growth of ever expanding city like Kochi! The city has seen such a kind of growth, that it never thought of! Hence, it was not prepared for the battle. But that is not an excuse and along with a metro rail what Kochi needs is to have Sub-Urban services up to Calicut. The feasibility of such system of
suburban service is been studied in Kochi and also in the Capital City of Thiruvananthapuram.The Metro rail planned for Kochi is unlike that of Delhi Metro Rail, as in Kochi it will be Light Mass Rail Transit System(given for cities with population of less than 4 Million) which will start from Aluva and pass through National Highway across Kalamassery, Edapally, Palarivattom, Kaloor, Kacherripady, M.G Road, S.A Road(considered to be one of the busiest arterial roads in Asia), Vytilla, and end a
t Pettah covering a total of around 26 kms for Phase I.It has taken around 3 years for the Government to take a decision until which the project was in limbo. The construction work for Bangalore Metro has already started which was of course planned long after that of Kochi Metro. Anyway the kochi Metro will surely be a reality as the Government is showing keen interest in the Mega project of estimated Rs. 3000 crores.
Let us wait and see how fast all the things related to metro works!
In Him!!
Shenoys!!!
