This road will help people get around the city more easily and also serve as an alternative route to Amaravati.
The ministers also talked about fixing old water tanks, building new bridges, parks, and hospitals.
They promised that all the pending projects will start once the new budget is ready.
The state government has given Rs.
650 crore to Guntur for these projects, which will create jobs.
