Hyderabad Flyover

Hyderabad, Oct (EPC News): The 11.633-km long PVNR Expressway, named after former Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao, connects the Mehdipatnam area in the city to the Hyderabad-Bangalore National Highway (NH 7) en route to the international airport, is been throws open to the people of Hyderabad. Incidentally, the flyover is India’s  longest flyover.

Built by Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority (HMDA) at a cost of Rs6 billion, the 17.2-metre-wide four-lane elevated expressway starts at Sarojini Devi Eye Hospital at Mehdipatnam and lands at Aramghar Junction on NH 7 to join an underpass.

The airport-bound traffic will proceed further to get on to the Trumpet interchange, providing faster access to the airport.

HMDA officials say the facility would cut the travel time to the airport by 30 to 40 minutes. At present, it takes 45 minutes to an hour for a person to reach the airport from different points in the city.

Chief Minister K. Rosaiah inaugurated the city's new landmark Monday evening and drove in a bus on the Expressway, which passes over some of the congested areas in the city and the outskirts.
