The ThuravurPampa road, has been accorded administrative sanction worth Rs.150.29 crore in 2012. The Rs. 2.7 crorefirst phase grant was to acquire land for an approach road to the ThuravurThycauttussery Bridge, while the Rs.49.5 croreNABARDsponsored second phase was for the construction of the bridge. The thirdphase plan was to spend Rs.6.89 crore for construction of the road from Pallithode State Highway to the Udayanapuram Junction on the ErnakulamEttumannoor State Highway. A sum of Rs. 4.3 crore was set aside for land acquisition for this phase. The fourth phase in Plan was to have construction of the MakkekadavuNerekadavu Bridge, worth Rs.88.5 crore initially. The project was delayed as the authorities failed to begin land acquisition for Makkekadavu bridge. The total length of the bridge is 800 metre, and 720 metre of this bridge will be constructed across the Vembanad lake. The remaining 80 metre of the bridge can be constructed only after acquiring private land from Kottayam and Alappuzha districts. On May 27, 2015, the then chief minister Oommen Chandy opened the first bridge at Thykkattuserry and announced that the second bridge Makkekadavu would be opened in 2017. However, the land acquisition for the second bridge has not been started so far owing to strong opposition from landowners. While people in both towns see the project as an important move that can shorten the travel distance to the state capital, the families whose land would be acquired either do not want to be displaced or demand higher compensation. Fisher folk in the region are against any big constructions across the wetland that they are dependent on for livelihood. Affected families have formed an 'action council' to hold protests in the area.
