Hyderabad is one of the most sorted city in engineering, but several blunders that have come up in the city in the last 2-3 years build by the Municipal Corporation may just give most of us a reason to wonder why?
Certain obstructions have come up in the way of construction of PVNR expressway earlier which was thrown open to the public couple of months ago. The municipal authorities realized that the foot over bridge (Mehdipatnam) hardly a year old comes in the way. So the Rs1cr project was brought down.
The government is nothing to loose in it, what goes for them? Its public money anyway. Civil engineering cannot even plan better handling such a big project.
There are around 7 sky foot over's constructed in Hyderabad by the GHMC in last couple of years with budget of RS7cr, five of those will have to be brought down because it would obstruct the metro rail line would probably will be laid soon. For instance, many of us could have observed opposite to exhibition grounds the road connecting Mj market and Nampally, there was a foot over bridge under construction but was soon discontinued just after its columns were laid. Also now the columns seem to be disappeared. Authorities admit that it was due to lack of co ordination and planning.
Foot over which connects the right left of Begumpet area gives an empty look even during the peak hours. Pedestrians say that the point where is it built is hardly used to cross the road, same as the case with the bridge which is a km away from it.
So why aren’t we authorized to raise questions about these issues where public wealth is wasted off???
