A detailed project report is expected to be submitted by the Deloitte and Arrol team by 31st July to the State Government.There was a high level discussion between Deloitte, Arrol Consultancies and representative of the Kerala government and after significant debate it was mutually settled that once the project report had been submitted and accepted, the tender process would take approximately ten months.
Mr. Arrol, a world distinguished Marina consultant, who made a presentation of the studies conducted so far, said the primary focus would be on the marina, which was to be linked with backwater tourism, utilising the tourism potential of Alappuzha’s heritage structures and historic canals. Submerged breakwater systems with facilities for water activities and yachting and a connection of the same to the canals to take vacationers to the backwaters of Kuttanad are part of the project.
This is the start of many more Marina developments all around India.
