Last Updated:
This Rs 650-crore project is aimed at reducing heavy traffic and will link key areas like Hayathnagar via the Outer Ring Road (ORR).
The Telangana government is planning a brand-new greenfield highway that will cut down travel time between Hyderabad and Vijayawada to just two hours.
As per The New Indian Express, State Roads & Buildings Minister Komatireddy Venkat Reddy shared this exciting update during an inspection in Vanasthalipuram.
How Will LB Nagar Benefit?
One of the major projects in focus is a six-kilometre elevated corridor from LB Nagar to Pedda Amberpet. This Rs 650 crore project aims to ease traffic in this busy stretch. It will link directly to the Outer Ring Road (ORR), providing smoother access to Hayathnagar and beyond.
The minister also highlighted that Rs 541 crore was already secured for road work between LB Nagar and Malkapur during his MP tenure, and he now aims to finish all pending works without delay.
To make roads safer, the government has identified 17 accident-prone black spots that will be fixed on priority.
What's Next for Metro and Rail Projects?
The minister will soon meet Union Minister Nitin Gadkari to fast-track approvals for Metro Phase-II and the Regional Ring Railway.
What About Healthcare?
Telangana's healthcare scene is getting a boost too. The super-specialty TIMS Hospital in Sanathnagar will open this September. More such hospitals are coming up to provide corporate-level care to citizens.
