Telangana Shelves KBR Park H-CITI Projects for Steel Flyover
Officials in Telangana have changed a road-building plan around KBR Park.
The old plan called for eight underpasses and seven flyovers.
The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation decided to drop that plan at a Saturday meeting.
Officials instead proposed one long steel flyover.
It would stretch 7.5 kilometres from Jubilee Hills Checkpost to Muffakham Jah College.
The route would pass through Road No.
2 and the KBR Park junction.
The new plan is expected to save only a small amount compared with the old one.
