Smooth ride?
• The Parama flyover will change the way I travel ( Bridge of change, October 9) because it will reduce traffic rush at the Science City crossing and save time.

• The Parama flyover will change the way I travel because it will give us a better view of the city. It will change the way I travel because it will surely save time.
Swati Agarwal
• The Parama flyover will be a godsend for all of us who commute from New Town. I will be able to drive to my club on Park Street more frequently. Hope the second phase doesn't take another five years to complete!
Debashish Basu
• Thank God, work on the Parama flyover is finally over. Now, hopefully we won't have to face traffic snarls near Topsia. The flyover will also reduce our travelling time.

• I have been waiting for the Parama flyover because it will allow me to reach patients in emergency at Apollo hospital on time (Get set to fly over traffic, September 29).
Milan Chhetri
• The Parama flyover will be such a big relief for all those commuting to the eastern part of the city. I am a resident of Tangra and we usually experience huge traffic snarls.
Shreevar Chhotari
• The Parama flyover will reduce traffic and save time.
Kishore Mullick
• The Parama flyover will save my time. Less time spent on the road will mean greater efficiency.
S.K. Bhartia
• I go to Dargah Road every day since my six-year-old daughter studies at Mahadevi Birla World Academy. The Parama flyover will save 15 minutes of my time every day.
Rajat Shah
• I feel the flyover will ease the traffic on the road below. I also hope to see a difference during the Book Fair, when traffic peaks.
Latha Shankar
• I stay in Howrah and the Parama flyover will save my time while travelling to Salt Lake, Baguiati, VIP Road or near Ruby hospital.
Ashish Gupta
• I love driving but the traffic from the Park Circus area leading to Bridge No. 4 makes it a painful experience. I hope Parama flyover will change that.
Sitwat Ejaz
• After a long wait, the Parama flyover is open. I am waiting to catch a bird's eye view of the wetlands from atop the flyover.
Priyanka Niyogi
• The Parama flyover will not only reduce travel time for me, but it will also make my commute hassle-free. I also hope Phase II of this project gets completed soon.
Pankaj Agarwal
• The Parama flyover will end my days of despair caught in the middle of the traffic not knowing when I will reach office. It will save 30 minutes on an average for the lakhs of people who take the route, we would start saving at least 10,000 litres of fuel each day, lessening pollution.
Abhishek Purakayastha
• I am a physician staying in Kalikapur. I have great difficulty reaching Salt Lake hospitals in time at peak hours. I hope better days are ahead.
Deb S. Das
• The Parama-Park Circus flyover will act as a catalyst for the revival of the road transport system in the city and will help commuters avoid the perennial traffic snarl in the area. Waiting for ages in traffic snarls is ubiquitous to the city but hopefully things will change because of this colossal project. The government should take adequate steps to complete work on other flyovers as well.

What's in a name?
• I am against calling the flyover Ma (Ma for Manush to fly over Mati , October 13). Why Ma? Aren't there any other names? Any place should be named in a way that can help people easily identify it.
B. Ghosh
• Naming a flyover on a busy road as Ma clearly shows a bankruptcy of ideas and imaginations. As an Indian, we know our motherland as the other Ma after our own biological mother. I cannot think of a flyover as my Ma.
