Hyderabad Approves Rs 2,254-Crore Road Infrastructure Upgrade
The government of Telangana has approved a big plan to improve the roads in Hyderabad.
They will spend Rs 2,254 crore on three main projects.
One project is to build a special road called a trumpet interchange that will help cars move easily between different important roads.
Another project is to build an elevated road, like a bridge, that will make it easier to drive from one part of the city to another without stopping at traffic lights.
The last project is to make a road called Pipeline Road wider so that there is less traffic in areas like Manikonda and Gandipet.
These projects will make it easier for people to travel around Hyderabad and help the city grow.
The Telangana government approved Rs 2,254 crore for urban infrastructure projects in Hyderabad to improve traffic and connectivity.
A trumpet interchange at km 143 will connect Radial Road-2 with the ORR, costing Rs 488 crore.
Elevated Corridor-III will be built in two phases: Filmnagar to Shilpa Layout (5 km) and ICCC Tower to Hakimpet Kunta (4 km), costing Rs 1,656 crore.
Pipeline Road from MGIT to Manikonda will be widened to ease traffic congestion, costing Rs 110 crore.
The projects aim to improve regional and intra-city connectivity, especially for high-growth corridors.
