Light vehicle movement resumed on Kodaikanal-Palani ghat road on Wednesday morning.
The ghat road had remained closed for vehicle movement since September 1 as a landslip occurred near Savarikkadu at 13th hairpin bend and minor damages were reported in various sections of the road.
Collector S. Visakan said authorities sprang into action and expedited works on a war footing. “Since the road had been made temporarily fit for use, we have permitted light vehicle movement. Soon, heavy vehicles will also be permitted to use the road and the progress is closely monitored,” he added.
