Soon, Thiruvananthapuram to get a “royal” corridor

In an effort to create beautiful public spaces within Thiruvananthapuram and give a leg-up to tourism activities, the Corporation here has come up with an elaborate project. Helmed by the Smart City Thiruvananthapuram (SCTL), one of the key priorities of the project is the overall beautification of the Kowdiar Square-Vellayambalam-Corporation office stretch.

The Corporation intends to turn this stretch, lined with a slew of heritage structures, into the “royal” corridor of the capital city by further bolstering its scope for tourism and nightlife. Kanakakunnu Palace and Museum, on this stretch, are already the most visited spots in the capital city. Plans are already afoot to see the Kanakakunnu area as a thriving nightlife spot.

According to officials, existing lighting arrangements in the corridor will undergo a massive facelift. “As many as 110 state-of-the-art lamp posts with modern street lights with royal touch will be installed along the ‘royal’ corridor. We are also planning to landscape these areas to give them a green look. Seating arrangements will also be given,” the official said. A space for feeding babies will be one of the main attractions of the project which aims to draw tourists.
