HYDERABAD: Municipal administration minister KT Rama Rao will lay the foundation stone on Saturday for the four-lane bi-directional elevated corridor from Indira Park to VST and three-lane bi-directional flyover from Ramnagar to Baghlingampally. Both the projects are being built at a cost of Rs 426 crore. The length of the elevated corridor is 2.62 km. Unlike the regular elevated corridor, the proposed orridor near Indira Park is being built with steel piers and girders
As per the detailed project report, the corridor will ease traffic from Indira Park going towards VST junction, while the flyover is set to reduce traffic congestion on the Ramnagar- Baghlingampally stretch. The length of the flyover will be 0.850 km. Mayor Bonthu Rammohan said the government had set a deadline of two years to complete the construction of both the elevated corridor and flyover. “Soil testing has been completed for both the projects. The permitted speed on the corridor will be 40 kmph and on the flyover, it will be 30 kmph,” the mayor added.
