A new six-lane flyover is in progress to ease the traffic flow

A new project aimed at addressing the traffic issues in the busy IT corridor and Business District of Hyderabad has started to take shape with the construction of a new six-lane bidirectional Gachibowli-Kondapur flyover.   

The flyover is coming up towards Outer Ring Road at the second level crossing of Gachibowli junction with an estimated cost of Rs. 178 crores. 

It is being built by the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation under the Telangana government‘s ambitious Strategic Road Development Plan. 

The length of the flyover is 1.2 km, and its width is 24 metres. The benefits of this SRDP project include traffic relief at Gachibowli Junction and better connectivity between Hitech City and Financial District. 

According to GHMC data, at the Gachibowli Junction, the peak hour traffic in 2019 was 9,806 passenger car units per hour.
