Metro works for the MGBS–Chandrayangutta corridor in Hyderabad’s Old City have advanced, with the number of affected properties reduced from 1,100 to 900. HAML is conducting night work, and geotechnical testing is set to begin for pillar and station foundations.
Around 105 religious, historical, and sensitive structures exist in the corridor, and utmost care was being taken to ensure they remained unharmed, Metro MD NVS Reddy said
This two-level planning could be necessitated in view of the relatively narrow stretch and presence of underground/overhead utilities on both sides of the road and a big religious structure on the right side in this stretch.
