Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy inspected Mir Alam Tank and reviewed development plans. Three island-like areas will be developed as relaxation centres, glamping sites and tourism attractions. Plans include water sports, wedding destinations, a 2.5 km suspension bridge, better drainage, and integration with Nehru Zoological Park. MRDCL Managing Director EV Narasimha Reddy directed HMWSSB to prepare a study on sewage treatment infrastructure to prevent untreated sewage discharge. Officials instructed to accelerate bridge construction and lake restoration works. Development follows the model of Hussain Sagar. Environmentalists have raised concerns about ecological damage from bridge construction pillars in the centuries-old water body.

The planned bridge across Mir Alam Tank in Hyderabad will connect Shastripuram on the Bengaluru Highway to Chintalmet. It is a 35-metre width, 2.4-kilometre conventional bridge with multiple piers, not a cable-stayed design as speculated. The structure will feature ornamental lighting and a 1.5-metre footpath offering views of Nehru Zoological Park and Mir Mahmood ki Pahadi.

The deepest region of the tank is nearly 12 metres; at other places, 9 metres. Pillars will be raised in the lake with circular junctions at either end for traffic flow.

KNR Constructions awarded the EPC contract for ₹319.24 crore with a 24-month completion deadline. Rights activists expressed concern about environmental impact and loss of lake area through encroachments and infrastructure. The lake has historically shrunk due to STP plants built inside it. Water quality assessed by Telangana State Pollution Control Board in January 2025 showed total coliform count at 540 MPN per 100 ml, making it unsuitable even for recreational purposes.

The bridge is expected to relieve traffic congestion from Bahadurpura Flyover and Aramghar Flyover, routing traffic toward the PVNR Expressway. The Mir Alam Tank was built approximately 220 years ago by the Nizam's Prime Minister Mir Alam as a drinking water source.

State government approved construction of cable bridge across Mir Alam Tank to improve connectivity between Shastripuram and Chintalmet along National Highway-44 (Hyderabad-Bengaluru highway). Project estimated at ₹319.24 crore awarded to KNR Constructions Ltd under EPC (engineering, procurement, construction) mode. Company bid was 4.89% higher than estimated cost. Bridge features: length 2.6 km, four lanes, 45 pillars to be constructed in Mir Alam Tank. Project approved by municipal administration and urban development (MA&UD) department.

State government will construct a 2.5 km bridge across Mir Alam Tank and develop three island zones styled after Singapore's Gardens by the Bay. Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy reviewed designs and directed officials to accelerate works. Tenders for bridge construction to be issued by June. Island zones to feature: Bird Paradise, waterfalls, convention centres for weddings, adventure park, theme park, amphitheatre, resorts, and hotels. Boating facilities planned on Musi River. Development through Public-Private Partnership (PPP) mode. Hydrological and environmental survey required. Network linking island zone with nearby zoo to be developed, with zoo park upgrades planned. Project aims to attract domestic and international tourists.
