Chamravattom Regulator-cum-Bridge

The Chamravattom structure crosses the Bharathapuzha River with a roadway while functioning as a water regulator. It consists of multiple openings arranged to allow both traffic and water management across the waterway.

The project was planned in the 1970s but construction was delayed for decades. Work finally began in 2009 when the regional government laid the foundation and moved the initiative forward.

This structure connects farming communities and allows local growers to irrigate their fields. It shapes daily life in surrounding villages, where people depend on the water supply for their harvests.

The best time to cross is during stable weather, as the structure may be closed during flood conditions. Visitors should stay on the roadway and follow any notices related to water control activities on the river.

The gates on the structure can manage and control water volume during extreme flooding to prevent downstream damage. This protection mechanism is a key reason the facility has become important to the region.
