Kottayam: There is a demand to install a one-way signboard on the Chalukun section of the Kottayam-Medical College road. The need arises in the situation where the lack of one-way board creates difficulties for the passers-by. Those coming from the Medical College side get lost where the one-way climb to Chalukun starts following the second hump at Chumka. Most people will turn off and take the road to the right. Not knowing that it is a one-way, the vehicles are coming at a good speed from the customs side. Those who do not know this and go through the one-way road get into an accident. At the beginning of Chalukun Road, there is a one-way signpost where you turn right. In such a way, the local residents and passers-by demand that the one-way to Kottayam should be placed at the starting point as well.
