Tirupati: MP B Durga Prasada Rao and Commissioner PS Girisha visited the Road Under Bridge (RUB) site near Rayalacheruvu gate in city on Friday.
The tender process was initiated for the Rs.15.3 crore bridge recently and on December 12, the tender was accepted and the works are given to Ajay Kumar Reddy of Hyderabad. Out of the total cost, Rs.12.3 crore will be borne by Municipal Corporation under Smart City funds and the railways will bear the balance amount.
The MP visited the site and discussed with railway officials. Speaking on the occasion, they said that in the next six months the works would commence after which the gate has to be closed for traffic for two months. MP has said that he will coordinate with the concerned officials.
