Previously there were two different municipal councils for this huge area (Uliyakovil West and Uliyakovil East), but they merged and formed a single council in 2005.[4] Some of the major city roads pass through this area.[5] One of the best CBSE school in Kollam district, City Central School,is situated at Uliyakovil. Sri Durga Bhagavathi Temple at Uliyakovil is a Hindu temple in the city.[6]
There was a proposal from Kollam Municipal Corporation and honorable MLA from Kollam constituency, P. K. Gurudasan for the preparation of a detailed project report for the construction of a bypass road connecting the Kollam-Theni National Highway-208 from Kollam city to Kundara via Nair’s Hospital junction, Uliyakovil, Mangad and Thannikkamukku, but the project still has not materialised.[7]
