VIJAYAWADA: The Union government is going to consider the proposal of Vijayawada MP Kesineni Srinivas alias Nani for the construction of three flyovers connecting Nidamanuru and Vijayawada city on NH-16.
MP Nani said on Friday here that he wrote a letter to union minister for road transport and highways Nitin Gadkari with a proposal for the construction of flyovers/VUPs at 3 junctions viz. Mahanadu, Ramavarappadu, and Enikepadu instead of the construction of an elevated corridor from Mahanadu Junction to Nidamanuru Junction on NH-16.
MP Nani said that he got a reply from the union minister Nitin Gadkari stating that NHAI had already received bids for the preparation of Feasibility/DPR from Mahanadu Junction in Vijayawada city to Nidamanuru Railway Bridge on NH-16, which also included the proposed three junctions. He said that soon the union government would award consultancy work and, based on the outcome of the DPR, it would take a suitable decision. He further added that the traffic woes on NH-16 from Ramavarappadu Junction to Nidamanuru Junction would be resolved with the three proposed flyovers.
