Telangana Hyderabad - Centre approves elevated corridors in defence lands
It is anticipated that traffic problems on the roads from hyderabad to shamirpet and hyderabad to medchal will be resolved with the approval of elevated corridor development. It would also signify the beginning of the development of North telangana transit links.
In response, the chief minister expressed gratitude to Rajnath Singh, the minister of Defence, prime minister Narendra Modi, and other Defence Ministry personnel.
To reduce traffic congestion in and around hyderabad, the State government under K Chandrashekhar Rao first suggested transferring defense areas in hyderabad for the building of elevated skyways, corridors, and connecting roads earlier in 2016.
Two elevated corridors from paradise junction to the Outer Ring Road junction at Kandlakoya on National Highway-44 and from Jubilee bus Station to the Outer Ring Road junction near shamirpet were proposed to be built by the Municipal Administration department. Additionally, the officials requested the handover of defense property to build and broaden linkages. In addition, the State government provided money and essential land in return for defensive land. Despite the State government's persistent follow-up, the Centre did not respond.
To build both elevated lanes, the State government has requested 139 acres of defence property. A total of 83 acres were needed to build the elevated corridor, which would have stretched 11.3 km from paradise Junction to the ORR junction on the Rajiv Rahadari. Meanwhile, about 56 acres were needed to build the second corridor, which would have stretched 18.3 km along the nagpur Highway (NH-44) from paradise Junction to ORR near Kandlakoya, and would have included a double-decker corridor for Metro Rail.
