Demand grows for alternative greenfield road corridors to Infopark in Kochi

KOCHI Close on the heels of a decision to widen roads around the collectorate and to convert IMG Junction-Infopark road into a one-way corridor, IT professionals and others have demanded alternative greenfield road corridors to reach Infopark. Around one lakh IT employees and innumerable others now commute along mostly congested roads to reach the IT hub.

Pratidhwani, a welfare organisation of IT professionals that has been spearheading the demand for better road connectivity and public transport to Infopark, highlighted safety concerns arising from narrow, potholed roads and reckless driving by buses in Kochi and its suburbs. This comes in the wake of a young woman getting killed after a speeding private bus rammed her at a narrow, footpath-less stretch on Infopark road on Wednesday (November 4, 2026).
