GHMC and HMDA to Construct Elevated Corridors for Knowledge City Access
What happened
The original plan for seven flyovers and seven underpasses around KBR National Park has been abandoned. Instead, two elevated corridors will be constructed: one connecting Nagarjuna Circle to Road No. 36, and the other linking Road No. 12 to Shaikpet. These projects are being undertaken by the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation and the Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority to ease traffic toward Madhapur, Gachibowli, and Knowledge City.
