Roads in a bad shape in Malnad region of Karnataka
Shares

In Karnataka’s Malnad region, roads of Shimoga district that connect the coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada are in a pathetic condition. While Tirthahalli, Hosanagar and Sagar taluks fall in the Malnad region, Bhadravati, Shimoga, Shikaripur and Sorab taluks are in the semi-Malnad region.

For the northern and the central parts of the state, Shimoga district is a major link. The district has two national highways (NHs) and nine State highways (SHs). While the condition of Tumkur-Honnavar and Sholapur-Mangalore national highways passing through the district is good, that of the State highways is pathetic. The Nagara-Mastikatte-Hulikal-Siddapura stretch of SH 26 that connects Ayanur in Shimoga district with Kundapur in Udupi district is filled with potholes.
