Importance[edit | edit source]
Kollam-Paravur Coastal is one of the scenic roads in the state. 90% of this road is passing through the coastal areas of Kollam.[5] As a city road, Kollam-Paravur Coastal road has its own importance as it is acting as a bypass that helps to divert the traffic on the congested Chinnakada-Kottiyam stretch of National Highway-47 passing through the city.[6] In addition to that, the Harbour Engineering Department (HED) of Kerala is planning to make New port road towards Kollam Port as part of this coastal road.[7] So after completion, the road will serve as a coastal bypass for Kollam city.
The Harbour Engineering Department had completed the renovation works in Pozhikara-Thanni stretch of coastal road and opened for the public in December 2015.[8] Bus services through coastal road, connecting Paravur with Kollam, has been resumed on 8 July 2016, after a gap of 24 years.[9][10]
