Abbey Falls Road Under Construction, Alternative Route Arranged for Bhagwati Nagar

Madikeri, July 14; Work on the road leading to the RTO office of Abbey Falls and Mandalpatti, two of the district's major tourist destinations, has begun, and an alternative road has been provided for Bhagwati Nagar.

The main road leading to Abbey Falls and Mandalpatti had deteriorated for many years near the Muthappa temple, making it difficult to travel. Those who rely on that route, which falls under the jurisdiction of the Madikeri Municipal Corporation, and the public had been demanding that this road, which falls under the jurisdiction of the Madikeri Municipal Corporation, be repaired. Later, although the grant was sanctioned for the construction of the concrete road, the contractors delayed it due to rain and the locals not allowing the construction of the drain. Although the construction of the drain was completed recently, the work was stopped due to rain again. Now that the weather is sunny, work has started again, and the work of pouring concrete will be done from Ta. 15 (today).

20-day closure

Since the concrete road work is underway, it will take at least 20 days for the road to cure properly. Therefore, it has been closed from near Muthappa Temple Road to the junction of the road leading to Bhagavathy Temple. No vehicular traffic is allowed.

Alternative route

Since the main road has been closed at the beginning, an alternative route has been arranged for light vehicles to travel. From near Muthappa Temple, take the road leading to the convent on the left, turn right again near the convent, proceed forward to Bhagavathy Nagar Road, turn right again, and from there, turn left near Bhagavathy Temple, and you will join the on Abbey Falls Road near the cowshed. Vehicles coming from the Abbey Falls side can reach the junction of the road leading to Bhagavathy Temple and from there pass through Bhagavathy Temple and reach the city via Convent Road.

Heavy vehicles are not allowed

Since the alternative road that has been arranged now is narrow, only light vehicles will be able to move. That too with difficulty. In some places, there is also less space to give way to oncoming vehicles. Therefore, vehicles like buses, mini buses, TTs etc. cannot move, so their movement is prohibited.

Can come on foot

If those coming in buses and other heavy vehicles park their vehicles near Muthappa Temple and walk from there to Bhagavathy Temple Road junction, they can take rented vehicles from there and move in them. It would be convenient if arrangements were made for jeeps for rent going to Mandalpatti to take tourists from near the junction.
