Telangana Seeks Rs. 450 bn for Hyderabad Radial Roads

Telangana Congress MP Chamala Kiran Kumar Reddy has asked the Union government to consider two major road proposals for the state, including national highway status for two corridors and Rs. 450 bn for 10 greenfield radial roads. The proposed roads would connect Hyderabad’s Outer Ring Road with the proposed Regional Ring Road.

Reddy raised the requests with Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari, citing Telangana’s expanding transport and infrastructure requirements. The proposals cover connectivity around Hyderabad, links across several districts and stronger connections between the metropolitan area and regional routes.

One request seeks national highway status for the Sangareddy–Narsapur–Toopran–Gajwel–Jagdevpur–Bhongir–Choutuppal corridor. The second runs from Choutuppal through Amangal and Shadnagar to Sangareddy. Gadkari indicated that the policy for declaring new national highways was under consultation, and that the proposals would be processed after the guidelines are finalised. No highway status has been approved.

The separate funding proposal involves 10 new greenfield radial roads along the metro corridor. The roads are intended to link the existing Outer Ring Road with the proposed Regional Ring Road, creating additional connections between Hyderabad’s established peripheral expressway and the wider ring-road network under consideration. The projects are intended to support logistics and regional connectivity linked to Telangana’s economic growth.

The proposals remain at different stages. The highway request is awaiting the Centre’s policy framework, while the radial-road plan remains a funding and infrastructure proposal submitted to the Union government. No construction timeline, detailed alignment, land-acquisition plan, tender schedule, execution agency or start date was announced. Implementation will depend on government decisions and further project details, while Reddy said he would continue pursuing the requests.
