GHMC Commissioner Reviews Moosarambagh Bridge, Orders Faster Completion

GHMC Commissioner RV Karnan on Thursday inspected progress on the Moosarambagh downstream bridge and the Nalgonda flyover and directed engineering officials to accelerate construction works so the bridge and flyover can be opened to traffic at the earliest to ease commuter movement. He emphasised that timely completion and safe opening should reduce congestion and improve connectivity across the corridor. The inspection covered structural elements and site operations and officials were instructed to prioritise tasks that directly affect opening dates. The Commissioner asked for close monitoring and coordinated effort among the departments responsible.

At the Moosarambagh downstream bridge the bottom slab works have been completed and the last two spans are under construction while retaining wall works are progressing on the Amberpet side, the release said. Engineers were directed to expedite span work and retaining wall grading while maintaining quality and safety standards. Site teams were asked to clear any bottlenecks in material supply and labour deployment to avoid delays.

During the visit to the Nalgonda flyover the Commissioner noted that 79 spans of 85 spans have been completed and that girders have been erected for all 85 spans. He reviewed progress on the ramps and observed that works on the up ramp and the down ramp are underway. Officials were instructed to focus on completing ramp works and on finishing ancillary tasks such as drainage, pavement and safety rail installation. The release stated that efforts will be concentrated on delivering the flyover sections that will bring immediate relief to vehicular movement.

The Commissioner called for regular progress reports and frequent field reviews to ensure adherence to schedule and technical specifications. He asked the engineering teams to coordinate with traffic management units to plan an orderly opening and to minimise disruption during remaining works. The drive to accelerate these projects was described as intended to restore smoother travel for commuters as soon as safety and quality checks are completed.
