 Development of road infrastructure not keeping pace with the increase in traffic is a major problem faced by Kochi, like most other parts of Kerala.The city has four major railway stations – Ernakulam Junction, Ernakulam Town (locally known as the "South" and "North" railway stations respectively), Aluva and Tripunithura followed by smaller stations, Edapally and Kalamassery.There is also the Cochin Harbour Terminus providing rail connectivity to the southern segment of the Port of Kochi.
