Freshly laid solid slab of the structure gave away severely injuring a couple of workers at the site of the flyover under construction in Bairamalguda
In a freak accident, slabs of the flyover under construction in Bairamalguda collapsed in the wee hours of June 21, severely injuring a couple of workers.
The flyover is part of the Strategic Road Development Plan (SRDP) being implemented by GHMC, and connects Bairamalguda junction near L.B. Nagar with the Sagar Ring Road.
Freshly laid solid slab of the structure gave away even while the last layer was being poured at about 3.30 am, due to reasons still to be determined. Two grievously injured workers have been shifted to a corporate hospital, while a few others with minor injuries are being treated in other private hospitals, officials shared.
Damage & loss of lives could have been heavy had the incident taken place at the peak traffic hours, sources say.
A concrete mixer hitting the support structure of the slab while backing is suspected to be the reason for the accident, they said.

The silent reading movement in the Mylapore-Mandaveli-RA Puram area showed up first at Nageswara Rao Park around two years ago, with modest ambitions, when Balaji launched it along with other reading enthusiasts from the region. This initiative has now moved parks, and seems to set to get entrenched in one. Due to renovation work at Nageswara Park, the reading session became irregular. With the Nageswara Rao park work gaining more surface area, it had to be shifted elsewhere. And it seems set to continue with a newly discovered green patch in RK Nagar in the Sundays to follow.
