NHAI begins relocating ‘unscientifically located’ bus stops on Edappally-Aroor bypass
This held up vehicles behind them as well as those seeking to take the U-turn,” NHAI sources said.The steel barricades will also prevent pedestrians from jaywalking at the U-turn. More such bus halts and stops can be relocated if commercial establishments on either side of the NH bypass cooperate. “Over the past few months, it was observed that buses halting at the unauthorised spot often caused traffic snarls lasting up to 15 minutes and also led to accidents.
