I really like Kalamassery! This place has got great infrastructure, growth potential and something about it that makes it very homely. It's also got the Edapally waste disposal site which I'm not really boasting about but at least the waste is disposed somewhere! Finally there's a way to treat non biodegradable waste in this dumping ground. And don't worry about the metro rail project affecting the real estate negatively. This area has a lot of scope for appreciation rise and that's precisely what's going to happen :)

Hey it's interesting to note that the metro rail work was disrupted again in May. This time because the transported materials couldn't reach the metro construction sites. The Public Works Department seemed more hell bent on completing the Kalamassery-Manalimukku road concreting project that this hindered traffic such that the metro rail work was delayed and put on held. I think the civic authorities should make sure simultaneous development happens or they should focus on one project at a time. These sort of things are very inconvenient for everybody!

Hey it was for a very important reason that the Kalamassery Municipality decided to take that step. Why would they purposely be wanting any delay in the metro rail project? The metro authority kept violating the rules related to land space in the area. They took more land than what was appointed, and they started to divert the traffic themselves without even consulting anyone. Also the number of drain pipes that burst were a lot! Oh and concrete waste was dumped on sidewalks without any cleaning up activity. Kalamassery wants to the project to resume but it also wants the authorities to respect the guidelines!

So the good news is that Kochi is now experiencing its finest infrastructural project yet i.e The Kochi Metro Rail! Bad news is that the work has been delayed because of the ban that it was given by the Kalamassery Municipality. Hmm. This work has been help up since April 2013 and it's quite unfortunate because work needs to be done in 6 piers namely the ones between 218 to 223. So works has been disrupted between Aluva and Palarivattom. They need to complete the work by monsoon otherwise there will definitely be further delays. Hopefully the reason for the disruption will be sorted out soon.
