**Hyderabad, India – June 14, 2025** – The Central Government has approved the construction of two Road Over Bridges (ROBs) in Guntur, Andhra Pradesh, with a total funding of Rs. 160 crore. Union Minister of State for Rural Development, Dr. Pemmasani Chandra Sekhar, announced that the Ministry of Railways has sanctioned the projects for Syamala Nagar and Sanjeevaiah Nagar in Guntur.
According to Dr. Pemmasani, the entire cost of the projects will be borne by the Central Government, relieving the State Government of any financial burden. He emphasized that the approvals were a fulfillment of promises made to the public during the recent elections.
These new ROBs bring the total number of centrally funded railway overpass projects in the Guntur parliamentary constituency to seven, with a combined central investment of Rs. 572 crore. The other sanctioned ROBs are located at Sankar Vilas, Gaddipadu, Pedapalakaluru, Nandivelugu, and Mangalagiri.
Dr. Pemmasani also met with South Central Railway General Manager Arun Kumar Jain in Hyderabad on Friday to express his appreciation for the railway’s support. He further requested cooperation in addressing drainage and traffic congestion issues near three existing bridges within Guntur city. This investment aims to improve infrastructure and ease traffic congestion in the Guntur region.
