The estimated project cost is Rs 250 crore Rs 175 crore for construction and Rs 75 crore for land acquisition. The Union Minister confirmed the project’s inclusion and noted that tenders are being invited to prepare a Detailed Project Report (DPR). Further progress will follow the DPR’s approval.

Dr. Kavya welcomed the decision, calling it a significant step toward resolving long-standing traffic and safety concerns for Bhupalapally residents.
