Q: Hi, I want to know more about any water way development in Thattekad region. If there is anyone who knows about any development as such, please share it with me.
You know, i think that the the boats were shifted to a private company for making necessary changes to pass the test of the port department. The boats passed the safety test of the department.
Oh yeah..actually, a sum of Rs 250 will be charged from each tourist, who wants to enjoy boating for an hour to each destination. The ticket rate for children has not been fixed. Two fibre boats - one for tourists and another for forest officials - had failed mandatory safety test earlier.
I think this route is mostly for tourists. The ticket rate, time and number of trips in Bhoothathankettu reservoir outside the sanctuary has also been fixed. Before the tragedy, unrestricted services were conducted to all parts of the dam site.
hey, there are some new routes for safer travelling, especially for the tourists to the famous thattekkad bird sanctuary. I think that boating will be conducted from Thattekkad to Kuttampuzha, Neriyamangalam as well as Bhoothattankettu.
