(1) Establishing GPS stations: In order to ensure the global co-ordinate system, the corridor
was framed through GPS survey. Pair of GPS pillars was established at every 2 km along
the corridor.
(2) Establishing Benchmarks: In order to ensure locational and directional as well as vertical
control along the project road, bench mark pillars (BM) were established at about 250 m
interval, in general, depending upon visibility between two pillars. This benchmark pillars
were connected to the GPS pillars.
Traversing and Leveling: Has been done to connect the reference BM Pillars.
(3) Cross-section Surveying/Detailing: Detailed cross sections are taken at 10 m interval, in
general, using Total Station. The cross sections are extended up to the survey limits
mentioned earlier. The main features captured in the cross-sections were:
• Ground level along the proposed corridor
• Carriageway crown, carriageway edges and two intermediate carriageway points
• Roadway edges (shoulder break-points)
• Embankment toe-line
• Borrow pit/pond/ditch/toe drain profile, where present
• All break-points of natural ground
• Positions of individual entities such as trees, utility lines and poles, wells and tube
wells, other pillars like ROW, NFR, etc.
• Property lines and Structures (with description)
• Salient points on Bridges and Culverts (e.g. Abutment, Headwall, Invert Level, etc.)
The data for each survey point are recorded in terms of Northing, Easting, and Elevation. To ensure
standardization of works of different survey teams and to facilitate further CAD works, a rational
coding system has been developed and used.
The survey data collected in the field has been downloaded in text file format and converted to
graphic files using suitable software.
The overall purpose of conducting a geotechnical investigation is to assess the Safe Bearing
Capacity for the foundation design of the structures. To accomplish this, the study was conducted
in the following phases:

Subsoil borehole investigations have been made as per relevant Indian Standards for the
proposed new structures. Sub-surface exploration for foundation works are carried out in
conformity with the clause no.2411.2 of MORT&H (Fifth Revision).
3.3.3.2 Boring/Sampling:
The bore holes of 150 mm diameter were sunk as per specifications and IS: 1892 and was
extended up to 3.0 m depth. Casings as required were used to retain the borehole. The borehole
was progressed using rotary drilling machine. The details of these bore holes including field of
Standard Penetration and also collection of disturbed and undisturbed soil samples are given in
Bore Logs enclosed.
Disturbed & SPT representative samples of sub-surface deposits were collected from bore holes,
labelled depth wise and placed in polythene bags. Reference Numbers and depth of these
samples are shown in Bore Log Data Sheets.
Disturbed representative soil samples were collected during the progress of boring, from shell
and also from split-spoon sampler of Standard Penetration Tests conducted at different depth in
boreholes. Such soil sample contains all the constituent materials of the respective stratum.
Depth and details of the sample are shown in the borehole logs and presented in the Annexure
4.9.
Standard Penetration Test (SPT) was conducted in the boreholes at every 1.5 m depth by
connecting the split spoon sampler to SPT rod and driving it by 45 cm using 63.5 kg hammer
falling freely from a height of 75 cm. The tests were conducted in accordance with IS 2131 – 1981.
Conventional diamond core drilling equipment was used for drilling vertical holes up to specified
depth at each location. Rotary core drilling in rock was carried out according to IS 1892-1979.
This drilling technique was regarded as the most satisfactory method of assessing the character
of rock formation, which lies at depth below the ground surface. Specimens of rock in the form
of cylindrical cores were recovered from the drill hole by means of a core barrel. Double barrel
technique was adopted according to field condition. The core barrel was provided at its lower
end with a detachable shoe or core bit, which is of diamond. All rotary core bits were of NX
(75mm) size.

B. Design Standards
The project road is an urban road and design standards for most of the elements required for such
roads have been indicated in the IRC guidelines; International Standard best practices have also
been considered based on the design development needs. The entire project road passes through
an urban cum semi-urban area. Considering the physical conditions and cost-effectiveness of the
project, the improvement proposals were conceived adhering to the various relevant Indian Roads
Congress (IRC) guidelines.
The data collected from the detailed surveys and investigations and the results derived from
various data analyses formed the basis for engineering designs. This section discusses the design
of various road elements.
Within the agreed scope of services, all tasks related to field studies, design and drawings of road
alignment, pavement, Cross Drainage works and road furniture are proposed in accordance with
the latest guidelines/ circulars of MORT&H and relevant publications of the IRC. In the absence of
any guidelines on any items, best international practices are adopted in addition to the
experiences in similar projects. Design guidelines that are adopted for the design of various
elements coming under the project roads are summarized in Table 6-2.

The proposed Camber for the corridor and service roads is 2.5%.
For high bituminous surfacing or cement concrete surfacing camber of 1.7% to 2% is recommended
as per IRC. Higher values camber can be adopted for high intensity of rain fall areas. Hyderabad
receives high intensity of rain fall and during the site visit it is observed that storm water is flowing
along the road. Camber of 2.5% is recommended considering high intensity of rainfall in Hyderabad
region.
For Electrical: Transformers, 430 Volts, 11 KV and 33 KV lines; all these electrical appurtenances
shall be shifted and accommodated within the proposed Right of Way, towards the extreme
edge.

6.1.2.1 General
For the proposed development, the following parameters are very important for ensuring the
smooth flow of traffic.
Geometric Improvements
Junction Improvements
Road Signs and Pavement markings
Other Facilities
a) Radius of Curve
The alignment follows the existing alignment except where horizontal alignment improvements are
necessary. Depending on the design speed and site constraints, the minimum radius of the
horizontal curve has been derived as per the formula given below.
R = V2/ (127*(e+f))
Where:
V = Vehicle Speed in km/h
R = Radius of Curve in m
e = Superelevation
f = Coefficient of side friction between vehicle tyres and pavement (taken as 0.15)
Based on the above equation, the minimum radii of horizontal curves for the different design
speeds shall be worked out with maximum superelevation limiting to 2% (i.e. reverse crown).

SERVICES (PPICS) FOR MODEL ROAD CORRIDORS IN HYDERABAD CITY
F I N A L C O R R I D O R D EV E L O P M E N T P L A N (F I N A L D P R ) – MISSING LINK CONNECTIVITY PROJECT
Minimum radius for horizontal curves in plain and rolling terrain for design speed of 60 km/h = 150
m and for design speed of 50 km/h = 90 m.
b) Superelevation
The superelevation ‘e’ shall be calculated adhering to IRC:38-1988 utilizing the formula. e =
V2/(225*R), Where ‘V’ is the design speed and ‘R’ is the radius of curvature in meters. The
maximum superelevation is limited to 2% to reduce roll over in urban areas.
Superelevation is proposed for all the horizontal curves with radius less than 750 m in order to
counteract the effect of centrifugal force. As per IRC: 38 -1988, superelevation to fully counteract
the centrifugal force for 75% of the design speed of 60 km/h neglecting the lateral friction
developed will be adopted in design. The maximum superelevation is limited to 7% as per codal
requirement.
c) Transition Curves
The minimum length of transition curve determined from the following two considerations and
the larger of the two values is adopted for design:
i) Ls = 0.0215 V3/CR
Where:
Ls = Length of Transition Curve in meters
V = Speed in km/hr
R = Radius of Circular Curve in meters
C = Rate of Change of Centrifugal Acceleration = 80/(75+V) (Subject to a maximum of 0.80 and
minimum of 0.50)
ii) Rate of change of superelevation should not be such as not to cause discomfort of travellers. Further rate
of change of superelevation should not be steeper than 1 in 150 for roads in plain/rolling terrain.
The formula for minimum length of Transition Curve on the basis is: Ls = 2.7 V2/R.
Some of the broad principles keep in mind during the design of the alignment:
The curves are designed to have the largest possible radius and in no case less than the
minimum value corresponding to the design speed.
Sharp curves are avoided.
Long curves with suitable transitions generally are proposed.
Reverse curves are avoided as far as possible.
Horizontal Alignment should be well coordinated well the vertical alignment.
Details of Horizontal Alignment Report is presented in Table 6-6.

i. Summit Curves:
Summit curves in urban areas are designed for safe stopping sight distance and they are coordinated with
horizontal curvature.
When the length of the curve is greater than the sight distance:
L = NS2 / 4.4, where S = Stopping sight distance
When the length of the curve is less than the sight distance:
L = 2S – 4.4 / N, where S = Stopping sight distance
The longitudinal profile, vertical curve details, gradient details are provided in the plan and profile
drawings in volume-II. The detailed plan & profile, base map and typical cross section are

a) Sight distance: It is necessary to provide adequate sight distance to facilitate the drivers to
decide on necessary manoeuvres allowing enough time and distance to control their vehicles.
As per IRC: 86-1983 recommendations, the appropriate stopping sight distance (SSD) relative
to the design speed should be provided at every point while fixing the road alignments. The
stopping sight distance, intermediate sight distance and overtaking sight distance against
various design speeds are summarized in table below.

6.1.3.1 General
Pavement design forms an integral part of a highway project. Pavement construction cost
constitutes the substantial project cost. An adequate and economical design for a pavement
structure is just as important as a design for any other engineering structure. Pavement
performance under prevailing and projected traffic and environmental conditions is considered
to be crucial as it has a direct bearing on the economic returns from the project developments.
An under-designed pavement will fail prematurely, costing more money for repairs. A wasteful
over-design will unnecessarily deplete a limited budget. It should also be emphasized that
pavement design is only one aspect associated with the achievement of sound pavement
performance. A global and integrated approach of DESIGN (materials assessment and pavement
composition), CONSTRUCTION (to meet design requirements, including tolerances and drainage)
and MAINTENANCE (to maintain pavement integrity) is required for high level of pavement
performance.
The objective in the design of the road pavement is to select appropriate pavement, layer
thicknesses and configurations to ensure that the pavement performs adequately and requires
minimal maintenance under the anticipated traffic loading for the design life adopted. To achieve
this objective and thereby to predict the performance of any pavement structure, it is necessary
to analyze material characteristics, traffic, local environment and its impacts, and technology
available for construction. In addition, it is also necessary to presume what level of performance
and what pavement condition will be considered satisfactory. Because of the many variables and
their interactions with the pavement, which influence the result, it is apposite to adopt a
systematic approach to design the pavement.
The objective is to determine the total thickness of the pavement structure as well as thickness
of individual structural layer components. Design strength of pavement must be adequate to
support the projected traffic loading throughout the design period.

c) Design Traffic considerations:
It may be noted that the traffic will be diverted on to this road from other parallel roads. Once
the missing link construction is completed, due to the diversions, the traffic will increase on this
road. The estimated traffic for the base year 2023 on the proposed road is presented in the table
below.
The traffic flow characteristics and the traffic movement expected on the missing link after the
development were assessed and the detailed traffic analysis is discussed in chapter 5.

Subgrade:
Rigid Pavement is proposed with effective CBR of subgrade of 10% and the materials available at
site from cutting or from borrow areas shall suit the above requirement.
The strength of subgrade is expressed in terms of modulus of subgrade reaction k, which is
defined as the pressure per unit deflection of the foundation. As per Clause 5.7.3.4 of IRC: 58-
2015, the design k-value is often estimated from soaked CBR value.
•Effective Sub grade CBR = 10% is considered for the project
•Modulus of subgrade reaction k-value (MPa/m) = 278 (as per Table 2 of IRC: 58-2015)
k) Concrete Strength
Flexural strength of concrete is required for the purpose of design of concrete slab. Concrete mix
design is usually based on 28-days strength.
Flexural strength of pavement quality concrete considered for the project is 4.5 MPa.

6.1.7.1 INTRODUCTION
In urban areas, the railway tracks have to cross the roads in and around highly populated and well
built up locations. So if a level crossing is provided in such locations, these level crossings either
manned or unmanned, cause traffic jams when a train has to pass by. As both population and
traffic are increasing day by day, delays and the risk of accidents at such crossings are also
increasing. Majority of train accidents were at level crossings and so Indian Railways have decided
to go for Road Over Bridges (ROBs) and Road Under Bridges (RUBs) wherever necessary in
populated cities. As the cities are ahead developed, the land acquisition for construction of ROB is
difficult and sometimes not possible, so under such cases RUBs are preferred.

7 ROAD INFRASTRUCTURE
In the present chapter a detailed description of various road attributes is presented. The road
attributes include pavement markings, pedestrian crossings, road signs, road studs, etc.
Pavement marking for the project road to be adopted as per IRC: 35-2015 which includes
longitudinal markings, cross striping at junctions or at hazardous locations, or text markings on the
pavement, etc.
Pavement marking paint shall be in accordance with IRC 35:2015 and 5th Revision of MORT&H.
Pedestrian crossings shall be provided at important intersections where conflict exists between
vehicular and pedestrian movements. The site should be so selected that the pedestrians are
subjected to minimum inconvenience and the vehicular traffic too is not interrupted very often.
The facilities for such movement can be Zebra Crossings, Table Top Crossings, Pelican Crossings
and Pedestrian Traffic Signals. This will provide input for the improvement in design of these
facilities so that pedestrian movement can be faster, efficient and convenient.
The Pedestrian Crossings in the project corridor is proposed as per IRC: 103-2012. Minimum of 3
m wide pedestrian crossing is proposed in the corridor.
Pedestrian crossing is proposed with black and white stripes, which is embossed texture for easy
detection by persons with vision impairment. Thermoplastic paint with 5 mm embossed texture
will be used.

An inventory of environmental and social features of the priority corridor captures the existing
number of trees with their average girth and average distance from the edge of the carriageway.
Further, the inventory also provides information on the clear width available, cultural properties
and community properties within the proposed ROW (Right of Way). Based on the inventory of
the features along the roads, impacts of the proposed road improvements on the existing
features are critically analysed. The following sections summaries the key findings from the
inventory exercise.
8.1.1 Findings
The proposed Sanath Nagar RUB is located on the railway line between Sanath Nagar Railway
Station and Fathenagar Railway Station in Sanath Nagar and Cooperative Industrial Estate area
(adjacent to Shivalayam Road). A main line with 3 tracks and a running line (for industrial cargo
loading) with 2 tracks are falling along the RUB alignment.
After construction of the proposed RUB, the road connecting ‘Sanath Nagar Road’ and ‘Khaitan
Nagar Road’ will be the shortest path for commuters travelling from Erragadda and Sanath Nagar
areas to Kukatpally Industrial Estate, Balanagar and Jeedimetla areas. Traffic coming from Sanath
Nagar, Erragadda and nearby areas and going towards Kukatpally Industrial Estate, Balanagar,
Jeedimetla and surroundings areas will be diverted on to this route instead of taking Fathenagar
ROB.

Himayathsagar and Saroor Nagar Lake. As the city grew physically and demographically over
the years, the water lakes either shrunk or dried up due to unabated human encroachments.
In the face of the inadequacy of drinking water supply, population of some parts of the city
is dependent on the groundwater sources. The groundwater levels in the city vary between
5 m to 20 m below ground level in the pre-monsoon and 2 m to 15 m below ground level in
the post monsoon. The core area of the city and dense urban agglomerations viz.,
Bowenpally, Kothapeta, Sanath Nagar, Miyapur, Kukatpally, Chanda Nagar, Dilshuknagar and
Madhapur are highly exploited areas having deep below ground water level. There is no
water body near the corridor.

groundwater quality monitoring programme by Central Ground Water Board, groundwater
samples from 29 locations are collected in Hyderabad and analysed for various physico-
chemical parameters including pH, Electrical conductivity, Chloride, Nitrate and Fluoride.
From the analysis, the pH and Chloride concentration are observed within the permissible
limits, however, the concentration of Nitrate and fluoride are higher than the permissible
limits. Drinking water containing higher concentrations of nitrate leads to infant
Methaemaglobenemia, cause gastric cancer, effects to central nervous and cardiac system;
high concentration of Fluorine causes dental problems and very high concentrations lead to

emissions from the traffic. Emissions from asphalt hot-mix plants, transportation of
construction materials and vehicular movement along the project roads will have temporary
but significant impact on air quality during project construction. Felling/ removal of trees for
the road construction purposes shall have direct impact on the air quality. Major contributor
to the air pollutants in the area during project operation would be attributed to the increase
in road traffic. During the project construction, there will be an increase in noise levels due to
the movement of the construction vehicles and construction related activities (including
clearing / grubbing, demolition etc.,) in the project area. Demarcated “no horn zones” and

9 COST ESTIMATES
9.1 GENERAL
Cost Estimate is an important component of the detailed project study as it provides vital input to
economic evaluation. The cost estimation has been prepared for the project corridor with Flexible
Pavement including structures, footpath, utility ducts, etc.
The Project cost for development of Missing Links is prepared with respect to the typical cross
section referred in the Report and rates for respective civil works have been arrived based on the
rate analysis. The rate analysis is carried out using the rates of labor, material and machinery
published in Schedule of Rates of Telangana (SSR 2022-23) by PH&MED, Government of Telangana
and star materials rates like cement, steel, etc. has been taken from the monthly committee rates
(Feb 2023) published PHMED Telangana.
The methodology for arriving at a cost for each work item involved in this project is briefly
described as follows:
In accordance with SSR 2022-23 and acceptance of sanctioning authority, Municipal area
allowance over the labour component at the rate of 40 % is considered in rate analysis.
Construction Material rates are prepared by considering base rate, transportation to site,
machine crushing charges, blasting charges, etc., as per SSR 2022-23.
13.615% as overheads and contractor’s profit is adopted for rate analysis as per SSR 2022-
23 and it is loaded over the labour, material, machinery, formwork costs etc. for the
finished rate.

The sources for the major raw materials like aggregates are identified and the availability of
aggregates with sufficient yield was available at the various quarries and shortest lead distance is
available quarry with 25 km distance and for the natural sand the source was identified with
sufficient yield at Mid Manair, Karimnagar at an road of 165 km from others corridors Since bulk
quantities of concrete work involved in the project and the cost of natural river sand takes at high
and it may be recommended 50% natural sand + 50% crushed rock sand is used instead of using
100% natural sand as per SSR 2022-23. The following below Table 9-1 is the lead statement
considered for this proposed corridor.
Bitumen VG-30,SS1& RS1 materials 620.00 Kms HPCL & HINCOL Vizag
After procuring the material it should be transported to the site. The cost for transportation of the
material shall be applied to the total cost of the material. The transportation costs are dependent
on the average lead distances to the site. The appropriate conveyance charges are taken from SSR
2022-23 based on the lead distance. The adopted lead charges as per SSR 2022-23 are shown
below.

10 ECONOMIC ANALYSIS
10.1 INTRODUCTION
Government of Telangana State (GoTS) has planned to identify and develop the Missing Link
Corridors and Slip Roads which remain as a backbone for the future areas of developments and
to improve the existing transport network to alleviate the existing and growing traffic
congestion issues. These links will also act as shortest alternative routes.
The identified missing links/ slip roads of 126.20 km, which are linking to developed corridors.
They play a vital role in the decongestion of traffic during peak hours. During 2019-20, it was
proposed to bring them into motorable condition to ensure connectivity and smooth mobility
of traffic which will give immediate relief to the road users. About 44.70 km of roads with an
estimated cost of INR 313.65 Crores will be developed under Phase-I, balance 82.20 km are
proposed under Phase-II.

The missing link road improvement will lead to traffic shifting from the nearby influence areas
to less congested and shorter distance route. This will lead to increase in speeds as well as better
riding quality to the traffic on this corridor and also saving in travel time for passengers and
cargo vehicles. The assumptions considered for “with and without project” case are as follows:
The speed on peripheral road of missing link is taken as 20 km/hr and 18 km/hr for year
2023 and 2033 respectively in “without project” case and 40 km/hr and 36 km/hr for year
2023 and 2033 respectively in “with project” case.
For assessment of benefits of road based transport, unit VOCs have been estimated, using the
equations as given in IRC SP-30, 2009. The unit VOCs are derived by various lane configurations,
different speeds and for different vehicle types. These are defined in terms of vehicle kilometre
in case of road based modes. (Refer Annexure 10.4.2 Presents the VOC values).
The routine and periodic maintenance cost of the newly constructed roads has been considered
as follows:
Routine Maintenance: 0.5% of the construction cost per year; and
Periodic Maintenance: 1.25% of the construction cost every sixth year.

Effect of significant traffic volume on the city roads. Shorter distance travel of the traffic
is leading to substantial saving in Vehicle opearting costs.
As the income levels of the passengers are high in urban conditions, monetary effect of
small time saving is also substantial.
The sensitivity analysis reflects project viability in the worst scenario (IV).
10.8 CONCLUSION
The results indicate that the project is economically viable, even in the worst of scenario of
reduction of project benefits along with increase in project cost, with the EIRR being greater than
12%

1. In urban situations, where road works are to be carried out, more attention should be
given to the problems of pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles in places where heavy
traffic volumes are involved. As far as possible, the road works should be carried out at
night, and whenever night time road repairs are not possible, then only day time repairs
should be carried out. Repairs during peak hours should also be avoided.
2. Road users should be channelized and routed through and around the area under repair
with minimum of delays. Driver behaviour should be effectively influenced so that the
speeds are reduced to desired levels on approaches to construction zones. The traffic
control and construction activity should be coordinated in such a manner as to provide
for safe and efficient flow of traffic together with safe, efficient and rapid progress of
construction activity.

3. As pedestrians are likely to be present at urban construction sites, there must always be
safety or buffer zone between the outer pedestrian barrier and the traffic.
4. Availability of proper sight distance for the movement of vehicles at the recommended
speed for the stretch in the work zone should always be kept in the mind.

Road Signs:
Work zone signs convey both general and specific messages by means of words or symbols and
have the same three categories as in normal highway, viz. (i) Regulatory; (ii) Warning; and (iii)
Informatory/Guide Signs.
The construction zones require more signs than that being used for normal highway to convey
site conditions.
Shape and colour of the background plate to be followed for different categories of signs are
given in Figure 11-2.

Channelizing Devices:
The function of channelizing devices is to warn and channelize the movement of road users
through changed path of movement due to the conditions created by work activities in or near
the roadway. Channelizing devices include cones, tubular markers, vertical panels, drums,
barricades, pavement markings and road studs. They are also used to separate vehicular traffic
from the work space, pavement drop-offs, pedestrian or shared-use paths, or opposing directions
of vehicular traffic.
Lightening Devices and Variable Message Signs:
Lighting devices should be provided in work zones based on engineering judgment. When used
to supplement channelization, the maximum spacing for warning lights should be identical to the
channelizing device spacing requirements. Four types of lighting devices are commonly used in
work zones. They are floodlights, flashing warning beacons, warning lights and steady-burn
electric lamps.
Portable Variable Message Signs shall be the devices with the flexibility to display a variety of
messages. The primary purpose of portable variable message signs in work zones is to advise the
road user of unexpected situations. These signs have a wide variety of applications in work zones
including: roadway, lane, or ramp closures, crash or emergency incident management, width
restriction information, speed control or reductions, advisories on work scheduling, road user
management and diversion, warning of adverse conditions and other operational control.

12 CONCLUSIONS
12.1 CONCLUSIONS
The Missing Link Corridor “Construction of Sanathnagar RUB and Minor Bridge across
Kukatpally Nala in the Missing Link (Corridor No. 60)” is about 1.00 km (design length) and
passing primarily via Industrial, commercial, residential and vacant lands. The corridor has
been designed to accommodate the main carriageway and footpath. 4 lane configuration
is adopted for the entire corridor.
The estimated cost for the proposed missing mink corridor development including taxes is
Rs. 105 crores including RUB Portion of amount INR 51.73 crores. The total Construction
Cost is about Rs. 39.24 crores. This estimate consists of major components like Site minor
bridge (Rs. 4.17 crores), Retaining walls (Rs. 18.06 crores), Approach Roads with rigid
pavement (Rs. 8.29 crores), Drainage sump& pump house (Rs. 2.08 crores), R.C.C Cover
drain (Rs. 3.02 crores), Service Roads (Rs. 1.85 crores), Footpath (Rs. 0.38 crores), Traffic
Signages & Road Marking (Rs. 0.22 crores), and Junction Improvements (Rs. 1.15 crores),
excluding the taxes.
Efforts have been made to identify the utilities and services from the available records and
information from various government departments. Still there may be a few services which
may not have been identified and these will have to be addressed at the time of execution
of the project.
This project being located in urban area may encounter several issues like availability of
land, unexpected appearance of rocky strata, unexpected sewer or water lines, etc. These
issues have to be addressed during execution with appropriate solutions.
These modifications, if any, need to be effected on ground during the project
implementation in close coordination with the contractors with appropriate traffic
diversion plans in consultation with traffic police department at the time of execution.
Before execution of the work close coordination has to be established with the Municipal,
Telephone and Electricity Departments to shift their utilities in advance to minimize the
inconvenience to public and owners of the utilities and also to ensure smooth progress of
work.
