He said the issue of street lights would be solved by March this year. To promote public transportation, a ‘Bus Day’ can be organised with the help of the KSRTC. The Mayor promised to send the corporation’s dog-catching squad to Technopark this week to solve the problem of stray dogs. A comfort station will be planned near the village office at Kazhakuttam.
A bus terminal will be started at Kazhakuttam, with the foundation stone to be laid on February 10.
He also promised strict police patrolling on the Technopark premises at night.
