Amaravati鈥揌yderabad Expressway Approved

After over a decade of waiting since the 2014 bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh, the central government has officially approved the long-anticipated Amaravati鈥揌yderabad Greenfield Expressway鈥攁 major step toward improved regional integration and high-speed connectivity between the two Telugu-speaking states.

A New Six-Lane Corridor Spanning 220 kilometers, this expressway will be constructed entirely from scratch, bypassing existing routes to provide a faster, more direct link between Amaravati and Hyderabad. The estimated cost of the project stands at Rs 250 billion, with the Centre committing full financial support, including land acquisition costs.

The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) has already instructed the preparation of a Detailed Project Report (DPR), with the project set to create a fresh corridor conducive to economic growth, townships, and logistics hubs.

Backed by the Reorganisation Act The announcement was made by the Ministry of 亚博体育官网首页 Affairs as part of its renewed commitment to the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act, 2014. The Centre emphasized the need to bridge infrastructure gaps between the bifurcated states and, in a key meeting on February 3, 2025, reaffirmed its support for vital connectivity projects. Subsequently, MoRTH issued directives on April 9, 2025, to expedite planning and execution.

Calls for Port Connectivity In a significant development, Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy recommended extending the expressway toward the Machilipatnam port, potentially transforming the corridor into a high-capacity logistics route. He also proposed a dry port facility along the Hyderabad鈥揤ijayawada stretch to streamline cargo handling and boost economic efficiency.

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu supported the initiative, calling it a move that would strengthen cooperation and goodwill between both states.

Unity Through Infrastructure More than just a roadway, the Amaravati鈥揌yderabad Expressway is being seen as a symbol of reconciliation and progress, promising faster travel, stronger economic integration, and renewed collaboration between Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.

Once completed, the expressway will not only enhance passenger movement and industrial linkages but also catalyze development in underutilized regions along its route鈥攎arking a new era of regional planning and shared prosperity.
