Three flyovers built by the erstwhile Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad are set for repairs, strengthening and aesthetic improvements after cracks, damaged footpaths, loose concrete and affected railings were identified. Bharat Nagar falls under Cyberabad Municipal Corporation (CMC), Lalapet under Malkajgiri Municipal Corporation and Fatehnagar under GHMC.

• Lalapet Road Over Bridge (RoB), serving routes between Tarnaka, Lalapet and Moula Ali, carries heavy vehicles. GHMC undertook repairs in August 2019; a further estimate of ₹8.50 crore was approved for damaged bearings, expansion joints and girders, elevation corrections, a concrete wearing coat and beam strengthening. The route also serves commuters travelling between Sainikpuri, ECIL X Roads, Moula Ali, Tarnaka, Habsiguda and Nacharam.
• CMC has issued a Request for Proposal for consultancy to assess Bharat Nagar RoB’s structural stability after deterioration to its deck and protective railings. Built in the 1990s near Bharat Nagar Railway Station, it links Erragadda, ESI, Moosapet, Kukatpally and the IT Corridor.
• GHMC proposes widening the Fatehnagar-Balkampet flyover from two to four lanes, with repairs and restoration estimated at ₹12 crore, and constructing a parallel bridge. The flyover serves traffic towards Ameerpet, Begumpet and Yousufguda from Balanagar; congestion worsens during monsoon. A foundation stone for a road-under-bridge and flyover was laid in July 2020 by former MA&UD Minister KT Rama Rao. The new bridge will carry traffic from Fatehnagar towards Balkampet; opposite-direction traffic will use the existing flyover.

GHMC is taking up repair and restoration of the Fatehnagar flyover, whose staircase collapsed in the last week of May 2025, injuring two people. The Hyderabad Disaster Response & Asset Protection Agency subsequently pulled down the entire staircase.

GHMC invited bids for consultancy on investigation, non-destructive testing, rehabilitation methods and preparation of a detailed project report for restoration from Balkampet temple road to Fatehnagar road and from Fatehnagar Flyover junction to Sanathnagar road, including footpaths and medians. The study will assess the bridge’s structural strength amid concerns including railway crossings, inadequate carriageway width, poor drainage and pedestrian facilities, traffic management and lack of efficient mass transport.

The consultant will conduct ultrasonic pulse velocity and rebound hammer tests, prepare drawings and a report, and recommend restoration methods, materials and quantities, including immediate repairs to damaged expansion joints. Bids are due by November 11, 2025. Several city flyovers and bridges also need repairs because of worn expansion joints.

GHMC has proposed a restoration assessment and Detailed Project Report (DPR) for the distressed Fatehnagar Road overbridge in Hyderabad, which is frequently congested because of its narrow stretch. Proposed work includes repairs to damaged footpaths, medians and utility ducts. A consultant will conduct non-destructive testing, including Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity (UPV) tests at a minimum of 900 points across girders, diaphragms, bearing regions and pier caps, using scaffolding where necessary. Testing reports, general agreement drawings, a restoration scheme, and recommendations for materials and methods to repair structurally distressed components must be submitted. The process is expected to take around two months.

Out of the lake's total 19 acres, nearly 6 acres have been encroached upon. Soil dumped within the lake bed must be removed to restore storage capacity. Stormwater drains carrying overflow from Nagireddy Kunta to Kapra lake have been blocked or diverted at multiple locations due to illegal constructions. Gated communities including Golf Pride Homes, Malabar Greens Villas, Haripriya Nagar, Golf View Paradise, and Swarna Andhra Phases 01 and 02 have altered or obstructed natural stormwater drain courses. The Fox Sagar flood drain in Jeedimetla has been heavily encroached upon, shrinking from its original 30-metre width to 10 metres near residential areas. Under the culvert at Balanagar Jinkala Wada and Deendayal Nagar, the drain has narrowed from an ideal 40 metres (22 metres plus 9-metre buffers on both sides) to 10 metres. Heavy encroachment is causing widespread flooding affecting Fatehnagar and Balanagar slums. HYDRAA Commissioner AV Ranganath directed officials to conduct full drone surveys, remove all encroachments, and desilt soil under Fox Sagar lake to restore natural stormwater flow. He stated that drains in Kukatpally and Jeedimetla have become more dangerous than the Musi river. Areas like Bharat Nagar, Moosapet, Balanagar, Jinkalawada, Deendayal Nagar, Vinayak Nagar, and Kalyan Nagar are being submerged. Officials completed flood-prevention channel works in Swarna Andhra Phase-1, Yapral.
