Gadkari to Fast-Track Double-Decker Bridge Between Telangana & Andhra

Nitin Gadkari, the Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways, has promised to speed up work on a long-planned double-decker cable-stayed bridge that would span the Krishna River and link Sangameshwar, Andhra Pradesh, with Somashila, Telangana.

The project, worth ₹1,082.56 crore, has been postponed for two years. Its objectives are to increase environmental and temple tourism, provide a safer commute, and reduce the journey time to Tirupati by 70-80 kilometers, which can save up to 90 minutes.

Gadkari to Fast-Track Double-Decker Bridge Between Telangana & Andhra

Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari, has announced plans to expedite the construction of a double-decker bridge connecting Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. This ambitious project aims to enhance connectivity between the two states, reducing travel time and boosting regional economic development.

Project Overview

The double-decker bridge, a first-of-its-kind infrastructure initiative in the region, is being designed to accommodate both road and rail transport. The upper deck will serve as a highway for vehicular traffic, while the lower deck will facilitate railway movement. This innovative design is expected to ease congestion and provide a seamless transportation corridor between the two states.

The bridge will be constructed over a major river, ensuring better access for trade, commerce, and daily commuters. The project is part of the Central Government’s broader plan to modernize transport infrastructure and strengthen inter-state connectivity in southern India.

Significance of the Project

  1. Reduced Travel Time: The bridge will cut down travel time between Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, making transportation more efficient for commuters and businesses.
  2. Economic Growth: Improved connectivity will boost trade and investment, supporting local industries and businesses in both states.
  3. Sustainable Infrastructure: The double-decker design maximizes space utilization and integrates road and rail transport, promoting sustainable urban mobility.
  4. Enhanced Safety & Efficiency: The project will include modern safety measures, ensuring smooth and secure transit for both vehicles and trains.

Government’s Commitment to Fast-Tracking

Gadkari has assured that the project will be given priority and executed within a set timeframe. The government is keen on using advanced construction technologies to speed up the process without compromising quality. Efforts are also being made to secure necessary approvals and clearances to avoid delays.

Future Outlook

Once completed, the double-decker bridge is expected to transform the transport landscape of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. It will not only enhance inter-state mobility but also contribute to the socio-economic development of the region. The initiative aligns with the government’s vision of improving national infrastructure, ensuring better connectivity, and fostering economic progress through strategic projects.

As plans move forward, the project is expected to serve as a model for future multi-modal transportation projects across India.
