Construction of the Anakkampoyil-Kalladi-Meppadi tunnel road, which links Kozhikode and Wayanad districts, has been temporarily suspended following a debris slip at Kalladi in July 2026. Senior Public Works Department officers have been assigned to oversee the project, ensuring compliance with safety protocols and environmental stipulations mandated by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change.
