Andhra Pradesh's road infrastructure has long been a point of contention, particularly during YS Jagan's administration, which faced widespread criticism for neglecting the state’s deteriorating road conditions. Despite public outcry and even criticism from visiting celebrities, Jagan and his ministers defended their record, leaving citizens frustrated with unsafe and poorly maintained roadways. This neglect contributed to a significant backlash in the 2024 general elections, where the YSRCP saw its representation plummet to just 11 Assembly seats.
However, the narrative has dramatically shifted following the return of the TDP and its alliance to power. With the TDP now part of the NDA-led government, there is a renewed emphasis on improving the state’s road network. The central government has recognized the urgent need for infrastructure development in Andhra Pradesh and has sanctioned substantial funds to revamp its roads, ensuring a smoother and safer travel experience for residents.
As part of this initiative, the central government allocated ₹400 crore under the Central Road and Infrastructure Fund (CRIF) scheme for the development of 13 state roads. These upgrades will cover over 200 kilometers and are aimed at reversing the years of neglect experienced previously.
Additionally, Andhra Pradesh has secured ₹98 crore for a crucial infrastructure project—a 4-lane Road Over Bridge (ROB) at Sankar Vilas on the Guntur-Nallapadu railway section. This project, part of the CRIF Setu Bandhan scheme for the fiscal year 2024-25, is expected to significantly enhance connectivity and reduce traffic congestion in Guntur district.
This turnaround represents a major milestone in Andhra Pradesh’s infrastructure development, reflecting the TDP-led government’s commitment to modernizing the state’s road network. With continued investment and a focused approach, the roads of Andhra Pradesh are on track for a complete transformation, providing relief to its residents and laying the groundwork for economic growth.
Union Minister of Road and Transport Nitin Gadkari shared an update on the development of roads in Andhra Pradesh on social media, emphasizing the government's commitment to enhancing infrastructure in the region.
