The government of Telangana has sanctioned construction of a 1,048 mtr cable bridge across Durgam Cheruvu in Madhapur, Hyderabad.
The estimated cost of the cable bridge project is Rs 184 crore and is sanctioned under engineering, procurement and construction basis. The cost of the project will be equally shared by the GHMC and Telangana State Industrial Infrastructure Corporation.
The project, which is part of the Strategic Road Development programme, has been bagged by Larsen and Toubro.
The bridge will have approach roads from Jubilee Hills and Madhapur, and footpaths on both sides. Once completed, the bridge will reduce the traffic on Madhapur road and decrease the distance from Madhapur and Jubilee Hills to Gachibowli by two km.
