A ₹108 crore, four‑lane overbridge linking Guntur and Nambur has had its foundation stone laid, marking the start of construction.
The foundation stone for a new four‑lane overbridge connecting the towns of Guntur and Nambur was laid today, signalling the commencement of a major infrastructure project. The bridge, estimated to cost ₹108 crore, aims to streamline traffic flow between the two locations and reduce travel time for commuters.
State officials overseeing the project highlighted the strategic importance of the overbridge in supporting regional development and improving road safety. The structure will span the existing roadway, providing a grade‑separated crossing that eliminates bottlenecks at the current level.
Construction is expected to proceed in phases, with civil works slated to begin shortly after the ceremony. Upon completion, the overbridge will become a key link in the local transport network, enhancing connectivity for both passenger and freight movement in the region.
The ceremony was attended by representatives from the public works department and local authorities, who affirmed the government's commitment to upgrading infrastructure in Andhra Pradesh.
