Currently, the government is constructing two bridges on the Godavari River, three on the Manjeera River and four on the Manair River.

The bridges are spread across over 184 locations in the state and are developed and designed to also work as checkdams in accordance to Rao’s instructions that are focused on extending and retaining the quality of bridges in the long run.
