At last, Hyderabad – Warangal Highway Set To Be 4 Lane Highway!

The Hyderabad – Warangal highway is at last set to be a 4 lane highway, thanks to the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs(CCEA)’s approval yesterday.

The 145 KM highway, part of the national highway 163 leading to Chhattisgarh, will be expanded to 4 lanes. The Yadagirigutta to Warangal stretch would be expanded and in a later phase Warangal to Godavari road works could be taken. Rs 1,487.95 crore has been allotted for this 4 laning. After the completion of this expansion, the high traffic Hyderabad - Warangal stretch could get a little safer as there is high incidence of accidents every day on the single lane. The Hyderabad- Yadagirigutta has recently been converted to 4 lane with Rs 300 Cr and with the completion till the Warangal stretch, the highway could be closer to completion in connecting with Chhattisgarh at Bhopalpatnam, with the completion of works over river Godavari bordering Warangal district with Chhattisgarh.
