HYDERABAD: HUDA has proposed to start work on Dilsukhnagar junction flyover on October 2 to mark its 31st Formation Day.

HUDA Chairman D. Sudheer Reddy convened a meeting of HUDA and Municipal Corporation officials to review the flyover plan on Wednesday.

HUDA planned to construct a flyover from Moosarambagh to Dilsukhnagar - parallel to the Metro Rail Corridor on both sides to provide unhindered access to the road traffic in the congested stretch. The flyover would also provide a direct and faster route for long distance traffic travelling on NH 9 moving to and fro from Vijayawada. The flyover would have two separate viaducts on each side of Metro guideway structure.

The meeting discussed the 2-km flyover plan with reference to the alignment of Metro Rail Project for better coordination of traffic flow at Dilsukhnagar and Kothapet junctions.

The total present traffic volume at Dilsukhnagar is one of the highest at 97,000 vehicles (16-hour count).

MCH Additional Commissioner (MRTS Project) N. V. S. Reddy, HUDA Chief Engineer Vivek Deshmukh and representatives from M/s Span Consultants Pvt Ltd., Bangalore, attended the meeting.
