South Usman Rd-CIT Nagar flyover set for December completion: GCC

The bustling shopping district of T Nagar, known both for its vibrant retail scene and the perpetual headache it poses for drivers, is poised to see relief in the near future. It is anticipated that the construction of the crucial flyover, funded at Rs 1.31 billion by the city corporation, will reach completion by December.

It was mentioned that the one-way thoroughfare near the T Nagar bus terminal, which had been temporarily shut and rerouted, is slated to reopen in May, aiming to alleviate the gridlock that plagues motorists.

A budget totalling Rs 1.31 billion has been earmarked for the flyover's construction. Progress reports indicate that much of the flyover's infrastructure has been erected, with additional tasks such as pier construction, pier cap installation, girder placement, and relocation of metro water board utilities currently underway. Of the total construction expenditure, the contract for the bridge itself amounts to Rs 1.29 billion. Within this allocation, Rs 980.63 million is dedicated to construction, with the remainder allotted for ancillary expenses.

Moreover, the road connecting the T Nagar bus terminal and CIT?s fourth main road, facilitated by the newly built bridge, is expected to be accessible to the public by late May. This move aims to ease congestion at the T Nagar bus terminal junction, which serves as a nexus for five different roads.

Furthermore, plans have been made to include an up and down ramp from the existing Usman Road flyover to the Burkit Road junction. Officials from the corporation have stated that the ongoing construction of a 1,200-metre-long flyover will alleviate traffic congestion at various points, including the Burkit Road and Madley Road Junction, South West Boag Road, New Boag Junction, and CIT Nagar North Road Junction.
