Repairs Finish After Madhapur IT Corridor Cave-In With Traffic Curbs In Place During Curing

Officials expect the resurfaced stretch to reopen when commuters return after the Sankranti break.

Overview

  • Cyberabad police imposed traffic restrictions on the Ikea–Cyber Towers–JNTU route following a subsidence near Cyber Gate three days earlier.
  • The cave-in occurred between a fuel station and Shilparamam in a key IT corridor zone, according to Madhapur traffic inspector Sridhar Kumar.
  • Authorities identified a leaking Manjeera water pipeline as the cause, with seepage and drainage flow eroding the road’s base layers.
  • The pipeline has been repaired and the stretch has been excavated, refilled and resurfaced, with the carriageway now undergoing curing.
  • Diversions send vehicles from Ikea via Lemon Tree Hotel and Raidurgam Metro through Tech Mahindra to CII Junction toward Cyber Towers and JNTU, and holiday traffic has remained light.
