An new bridge over the musi river is scheduled to ease the decades-long commuting miseries of cars heading towards Dilsukhnagar, nalgonda Crossroads in Malakpet, and farther out, via Amberpet and Moosarambagh, who have had to contend with the flooding of the present low-height bridge. Officials from the civic authority said the foundations for the Rs 52 crore project will be placed by march and the project would be finished in a year.

The bridge runs from Amberpet's ali Cafe to pista House, directly across from the Musarambagh RTO. The present bridge at Moosarambagh over Musi is now being demolished to make room for the new one. The hyderabad municipal corporation-Latest Updates, Photos, Videos are a click away, CLICK NOW'>greater hyderabad municipal corporation (GHMC) has already begun demolishing segments of the current bridge.

The new bridge will be 400 metres long, including approaches, and 29.5 metres wide, with six lanes and 3.5-metre sidewalks on either side, according to officials.  "Unlike the previous bridge, which was low in height, the new bridge is 10 metres tall." The new structure will also be more visually appealing, according to a ghmc spokesperson.

The bridge is being replaced since vehicles had to endure during rainstorms because water overflow and flooding would render the bridge impassable, posing significant hazards to those who use it. "During rain and monsoon, the flow of water increases significantly." "There have been several occasions when the authorities have had to completely close the bridge for public safety," said C. Pratap, a resident of Shalivahana nagar in Dilsukhnagar.
