Q: Does anyone here have a clue as to what happened to the Walayar Highway? I remember reading some news in 2011 about the road being made between the Tamil Nadu kerala border. I‘m almost dreading asking this, I sense bad news.
It’ll take some more time. They’re funds are stuck, they need more finance. Once they get that, then it will probably speed up. The media is also not writing too much about it. People should make some noise, keep talking about these things on the media, otherwise soon iT will be forgotten and there will be only sands and stone in that area, no road.
It’s a disaster project, the Madukarrai-Walayar highway. There were several petitions also demanding speedy construction, but nothing really happened. As per recent updates, the work is still going on at an unbelievably slow speed.
Well, last I heard of it was one year ago. The road conditions are so horrible at this Coimbatore-Palakkad road, I wouldn’t ever want to take a two wheeler and go there. I don't see any signs of completion.
