Traffic to Wayanad through the Thamarassery Pass was held up for over two hours after a heavy landslide early on Tuesday resulted in a huge traffic jam. The incident happened near the 9th hairpin bend. The tree which fell on the road was later removed by the fire force and traffic restored partially. 

A drive from Kozhikode to Wayanad through the Thamarassery Pass during the rains is an experience in itself. However, you have to be very careful while driving through this pass.

The rolling mists that descends during early mornings and evenings along with the rain reduces the visibility to near zero.  Landslides are frequent and this may hold up traffic through the pass.
