Cauvery bridge on Tiruchi-Chennai Bypass to be reopened for traffic by October 15
The Tamil Nadu government says the Cauvery bridge on the Tiruchirappalli‑Chennai bypass will be open to vehicles by Oct. 15 after repair work. The closure of one of the two river crossings has led to heavy congestion in Tiruchirappalli, notably around Srirangam, prompting commuters to seek alternate routes. Officials expect traffic flow to improve once the bridge reopens.
