Mundur Road Junction Traffic Issues – Palakkad Kozhikode National Highway 966
National Highway 966 (NH 966) connects Palakkad, Malappuram, and Kozhikode district headquarters in Kerala. Previously known as NH 213, it spans 125 km. At Ramanattukara near Kozhikode, it joins NH 66, and at Palakkad, it joins NH 544, connecting Coimbatore and Cochin through Palakkad. The proposed Palakkad–Kozhikode Greenfield Highway aims to decongest NH 966 and reduce travel time between Kozhikode and Palakkad.

Key Issues and Recommendations:
- Traffic Speed Control: Implement barricades 100 meters before Mundur Junction from Kalladikode side, similar to effective measures in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka, to prevent accidents.
- Auto Rickshaw Stand Relocation: Shift the auto rickshaw stand on the left side before Mundur Junction from Kalladikode side to create more space.
- Junction Area Improvement: Increase the area where three roads meet by reducing the space in the middle of the junction.
