Dont worry about NIT report on PVNR Expressway

If you read the last blog post by us which pointed to a NIT Warangal study on the PVNR Expressway. The Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority (HMDA) on Tuesday asserted that it had taken sufficient precautions of traffic management and safety aspects for smooth and safe movement of traffic on the PVNR Expressway. Reacting to reports that the NIT, Warangal, in a study, had pointed at deficiencies in the maintenance of the expressway, the HMDA said it had conducted a road safety audit, through an EPC contractor, to identify problems faced by users of the expressway and the safety aspects too.The HMDA claimed that most of the issues raised had been attended to.

“The tree branches on the flyover are removed and damaged street light poles and lights are rectified. The Traffic Police have been alerted and they have increased vigil on the expressway to prevent two/three-wheeler movement on the flyover,” the HMDA said, adding that the NIT suggestion that a noise barrier be provided to one of the buildings close to the flyover at Mehdipatnam was under the consideration of the Project Management Consultant.
