Public Infrastructure: In coordination with the NGOs buildings for schools,
a primary health centre, Anganwadis, libraries, community halls and internal
roads are being taken up in the affected area. The details are available
elsewhere in this website.
At present there is only one Road Bridge connecting
Alappad Panchayat with the main land across T.S.Canal at the 11th ward.
Hence, in order to improve the connectivity, the Government have now
sanctioned two more road bridges at wards III and IX.
The construction of the bridge at ward no.3 has already been started
and the work is in progress. Further, Government have permitted Matha
Amrithanandamayi Math to construct a foot bridge at ward no. 6 across
the T.S.Canal.
Government have also sanctioned construction of Sea
Walls in the Tsunami affected areas so as to protect the precious lives
of people from the onslaught of the tidal waves. The Major Irrigation
Department has started the work and the work is in good progress.
