Hitec city, Kukatpally flyover by November 1
Techies can soon breathe easy from regular traffic jams at Hitec city as the work on construction of the much-awaited Road Over Bridge across the railway line between Kukatpally and Hitec city is in full swing.
The bridge may not be ready for vehicular traffic before the global biodiversity conference commences in October, but officials are confident of completing it on or before AP Formation Day (November 1).
The project was hanging fire after a series of delays, but the Hyderabad Metropo-litan Development Auth-ority and the South Central Railway authorities are working in “full coordination and cooperation” now.
Even the GHMC has acquired the all-important green signal from its standing committee to go ahead with the development, widening and construction of service roads and junction improvements near the Road Over Bridge, at an estimated cost of Rs 3.20 crore.
After considerable delays that tested the patience of commuters, the works on the RoB has at last entered the final phase. The bridge will be ready for vehicular traffic in another 60 to 70 days and easing the congestion on Hitec city roads, said a senior official.
The bridge is being constructed to provide smooth connectivity between Kukatpally, Madhapur, Kondapur, Jubilee Hills and ease traffic congestion in on main roads of Hitec city.
Due to delays, the total cost of the project has been escalating, and now the RoB will cost nearly Rs 50 crore.
