Hyderabad, August 1, 2024 — After significant delays, the much-anticipated four-lane expansion of the TSPA to Manneguda (NH 163) is finally set to commence. The long-overdue project, which has been a beacon of hope for commuters grappling with increased traffic and frequent accidents on this critical route, is now ready to take off with the completion of land acquisition and tender confirmation.
Key Developments:
- Land Acquisition Completed: The project’s primary hurdle has been cleared with the successful acquisition of the necessary land, paving the way for immediate construction activities.
- Tenders Confirmed: The tendering process, initiated two years ago, has now been finalized, ensuring that the groundwork can begin without further administrative delays.
- Banyan Trees to be Transferred: In an environmentally considerate move, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has planned to transfer the iconic banyan trees located along the route, preserving them as part of the region’s natural heritage.
The tender for the four-lane expansion was initially called two years back. Despite being allotted, the project saw no progress on the ground, much to the frustration of daily commuters. The delay exacerbated the challenges posed by the growing traffic and made the stretch a highly accident-prone area.
With the formalities now out of the way, the construction work is set to begin imminently. This development promises a significant reduction in traffic woes and enhanced safety for the thousands of commuters who rely on this route daily.
In addition to improving transportation, the project is expected to stimulate the real estate market in Moinabad and the surrounding areas. With better connectivity and infrastructure, these regions are likely to witness a surge in property demand and value, benefiting both current residents and potential investors.
The commencement of the four-lane expansion is a critical development for the local community. The project not only aims to ease traffic congestion but also seeks to reduce the high accident rates that have plagued the area. The transfer of banyan trees highlights NHAI’s commitment to balancing infrastructural growth with environmental sustainability.
