In a significant development aimed at easing traffic congestion in Hyderabad, the state government has announced plans to construct an underpass road beneath Begumpet Airport.
According to officials, the proposed underpass will pass directly under the airport runway, making it a first-of-its-kind infrastructure project in India. This innovative initiative is expected to set a new benchmark in urban planning and connectivity.
The decision comes after the Congress-led state government successfully secured approvals from the central government. The project gained momentum following continuous efforts to improve the city’s traffic flow, especially in key areas around Begumpet.
Chief Minister Revanth Reddy highlighted the importance of this project, stating that once completed, it will significantly reduce traffic congestion in the city. He emphasized that this underpass would play a crucial role in streamlining vehicular movement and improving daily commute conditions for residents.
With Hyderabad rapidly expanding, infrastructure projects like this are essential to meet growing transportation demands. The Begumpet Airport underpass is expected to become a game-changer, offering a long-term solution to traffic bottlenecks in one of the city’s busiest zones.
