Mayor B Rammohan said that in the first phase of the project the Civil Body planned to develop 37 missing link roads with an approximate cost of Rs 313 crore to provide better infrastructure. Of the 37 slip roads, 10 works had been completed and an additional 18 roads works were under process.

It was also planned to develop link road from Nallgandla main road at Ratnadeep to Mumbai old highway connecting with 100 ft width for a distance of 2 km. The travel distance is reduced to 2.5 km with this link road.

The missing link road of 2.10 km length from Serilingampally zonal office to Chandanagar railway track will be developed.  The HRDCL will construct the link road with a cost of Rs 11 crores and out of the 2.10 km road length, 1.75 km length was completed.  Also, 1 km of road length is to be provided from the Chandanagar Railtrack to My Home.
