The skywalk facility has been set up in the  Kozhikode medical college. The skyway path connects three major blocks of the medical college complex. 

The skywalk, built at a cost of ₹2.25 crore, connects the Medical College Hospital with the super-speciality block and the PMSSY casualty block. At present, patients are shifted from one building to the other in ambulances or on stretchers by crossing the road, causing discomfort to patients and bystanders. With the skywalk, patients can be shifted from one building to the other in battery-operated cars. Shifting them on stretchers is also easier on the skywalk as there is no need to cross the road.

The structure is 172 meters long and 13 feet wide. Two battery cars can travel in both directions at the same time. Its construction cost has been borne by Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited and the alumni association of the medical college while the civil engineering department of the National Institute of Technology oversaw the project as a social outreach activity.
