The road on the eastern side, from Amma Unavagam, is completely closed for construction, forcing all traffic to rely on a single access route from the super specialty block.

Officials from the Public Works Department (PWD), who are managing the project, said that the delay is due to difficulties in identifying the existing underground electrical cables and pipeline network. They further said that they aim to complete the project in 3 months.
