History
The flyover was built in the 1970s. The flyover was built due to traffic congestion caused by the railway crossing near the junction. The flyover connects the Northern and Eastern areas with other parts of the city. Though the flyover helped in reducing congestion, flaws in the bridge require modifications. No pedestrian corridor is available. Modifications have been suggested to improve the situation.[2] The bridge lacks maintenance leaving the structure weakened.[3][4]
Location
The flyover is located near the railway station. The flyover connects Avinashi road, Brook Bond road, Mmill road and Goods shed road.
