Mangaluru, Aug 22: Repair work on the old Kulur bridge began on Wednesday, leading to severe traffic disruptions between Nanthoor and Suratkal throughout the day. Motorists and the public faced significant inconvenience.
Traffic on the old Kulur bridge has been temporarily halted to allow for asphalt paving and plastering of the bridge's underside. Once the repair work on the old bridge is completed, asphalt finishing work will also be carried out on the new bridge, starting Wednesday night.
Since the work is being conducted during the day, vehicles are using only one bridge for both directions, causing significant traffic congestion.
