New Moosarambagh Musi Bridge Set for September Inauguration
A new bridge is being built over the Musi River in Hyderabad.
It is at a place called Moosarambagh.
The bridge is planned to open in the first week of September.
The older bridge was low and sometimes went underwater during the rainy season.
This happened when water was released from the Osmansagar and Himayatsagar reservoirs.
The new bridge is 10 metres high to help prevent this problem.
It should make travel between Amberpet and Moosarambagh easier and safer.
It also has wide paths for people walking.
The new bridge over the Musi River at Moosarambagh is scheduled for inauguration in the first week of September.
Built at a cost of ₹52 crore, the bridge is intended to improve traffic connectivity and transportation.
Its 10-metre height is designed to prevent the monsoon submergence that affected the earlier low-height bridge.
The bridge connects Ali Café in Amberpet with Pista House near the Moosarambagh RTO.
It is 400 metres long and 14.5 metres wide, with 3.5-metre pedestrian footpaths.
