A cable bridge from Jubilee Hills to Madhapur!
The 1.1km stretch is planned from Jubilee Hills Road No 45 to Inorbit Mall in Madhapur and will be constructed at a cost of Rs 184 crore under the Strategic Road Development Plan (SRDP).
With an aim to improve tourism, the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) will construct a cable bridge from Jubilee Hills to Madhapur.
The 1.1km stretch is planned from Jubilee Hills Road No 45 to Inorbit Mall in Madhapur and will be constructed at a cost of Rs 184 crore under the Strategic Road Development Plan (SRDP).
The social impact assessment and land acquisition for the project has been completed and the State government is likely to issue a GO regarding its construction in couple of days.
A senior GHMC official told The Hans India that the land has been acquired in three government properties including a small chuck at Dr BR Ambedkar Open University.
He said that unlike the conventional flyovers the bridge will not have pillars in the middle of the road and only a few columns would be installed on either side of the road to support the suspended bridge.
“The cable bridge will not only be a major tourist spot, but it will add glamour to the city,” he said. Skyway at KBR Park halted
When inquired about status of the skyway at KBR Park, he said that the works pertaining to flyovers and grade separators in ‘Package I’ has been halted due to a case at the National Green Tribunal (NGT).
‘Package I’ includes multi-level flyovers and grade separators at six junctions viz. KBR Park entrance, Maharaja Agrasen Junction (Road No.12), Film Nagar, Road No. 45 Junction, Jubilee Hills Check-Post Junction and Cancer Hospital Junction. Its total cost is around Rs 322.92 crore.
When asked about the financial position of the project he said that as of now they are completing the existing SRDP works but, corporation differing Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) mode will invite bids in Annuity Payment Mode (DAPM) from next financial year.
