Poor you
Hehehe, Even i would love to drive down that bridge and have a look at them, earlier they had a narrow bridge and every vehicle will drive slowly and you had ample time to see the ships....... that is one advantage of being in Kochi (especially to those who is military enthusiast) You could see Vikrant from MG road (the most happening road of Kochi) when it is under repairs in shipyard........

As of last week, I remember the Ministry of Defense confirming positive news regarding this issue:

There has been reports that India would buy 6 US2's and a Joint Working Group has been formed to seed up the discussion on it. It is said to be built by private companies in India and not by HAL.

Yup, This bridge across the canal (back water) also has a railway track next to it, though it got damaged few years back and that track used to travel towards Fort cochin station........
CSL and Naval base is opposite to each other across this canal and from this bridge you can see both CSL and Naval base.....Have seen vikrant couple of times there.....
(IAC1 also was there in water for few days, couldnt see it.... May be next time....)This place had all the transport facilities, Ship, Bus ,Air and Train..... all close by.....
