Following the river running at ground level, traffic on the Ambur – Gudiyattam road via the ground level causeway was stopped for some time. However, with the water level receding traffic between the towns resumed a couple of days ago. But, all were taken by surprise when the Malattar river suddenly witnessed increased flow resulting in a Gudiyattam-bound bus from Ambur being stranded in the middle of the river. Workers nearby used a tractor to haul the vehicle to safety. Later, another bus in the opposite direction also got stuck and was pulled out.
