The four flyovers coming up at Panjagutta, Greenlands, Nalgonda cross-roads and Chandrayanagutta will not only have good design aesthetics, but also offer riding quality and built-in anti-terrorist features, say officials of the Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad.
Additional Commissioner N.V.S. Reddy (Traffic & Transportation) says the new flyovers' construction would be of the highest standard and "it would not be easy to plan any sabotage" using them.
"With the terror threat looming large globally new construction strategies are being adopted for infrastructure. We have incorporated the same into flyovers so that they can withstand high pressure," he avers.
Fast work
The MCH aims to complete a significant portion of the work before the Asian Development Bank meeting to be held here in May since vast sections of roads on the flyover route have been widened.
The Panjagutta flyover will be a `combination' one and have a length of 1.7 km as it jumps over four junctions at a very short distance of 4 km. It will be a pre-cast girder segmental construction.

You're wrong! They only said that these new age flyovers can withstand RDX, TNT etc. But did they say that they can withstand terrorist's farts or their pee? They didn't. So they can very well collapse if any stronger wind than a terrorist's fart or any extra water poured than a terrorist's pee! The rain and the wind today are abnormal so they can very well collapse! So you are not justified in criticising these authorities (sic)!
