New flyovers to ease traffic in Old City of Hyderabad
The GHMC commissioner was joined by Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority (HMDA) commissioner Sarfaraz Ahmad, Hyderabad Metropolitan Water Supply & Sewerage Board (HMWS&SB) executive director D Mayank Mittal and other top officials at the inspection of Aramghar to Zoopark flyover construction site.
The much-anticipated flyover project Aramghar to the Nehru Zoo Park is a bi-directional six-lane flyover, spanning 4.04 km. When completed, it will be the second-longest flyover in Hyderabad and is expected to alleviate traffic at five major junctions: Aramghar, Shastripuram, Kalapathar, Darul Uloom, Shivrampally, and Hassannagar.
Reducing bottlenecks along this busy corridor promises to streamline traffic flow between Aramghar and the Nehru Zoo Park in Bahadurpura.
