Hyderabad: Municipal Administration authorities are bracing up to take up the Charminar Pedestrian Project (CPP) to the next level and now the works on proposed bridge over Musi River in front of Salarjung Museum would begin soon. An amount of Rs 208.50 crore has been earmarked for the construction of bridge. This proposal was recently included in the CPP in order to rehabilitate the pavement vendors and hawkers displaced from Charminar.
The basic work of forming buffer zone around Charminar has just completed. As per the information of Municipal Administration Department, the works pertaining to bridge construction would be carried out by the Hyderabad Road Development Corporation. The government has permitted the GHMC to call the tenders for the same. MAUD principal secretary Arvind Kumar has instructed the civic department in this regard. The proposed bridge would be for the pedestrians and there would be place for the vendors on both the sides.
The displaced hawkers and pavement vendors have been given place near Pancha Mahalla, Charminar bus terminal area temporarily. Some hawkers were given space near Kaali Kaman but they wanted a permanent solution for their business to continue. With the permissions from municipal administration department for tenders and allotment of funds, the works pertaining to new bridge may commence soon and vendors would be rehabilitated.
As part of the Charminar Pedestrianization Project (CPP) several other works would be taken up by the civil authorities. The entire project may be completed by the end of current fiscal year with the Rs 749 budgetary support and Rs 1500 crore loans from different banks.
