anduke gaa normal ga aithe speed highlight ayyedi... ipudu flyover design highligh avtondi...! Engineer fault you know... not the poor driver who was doing 105 in 40 zone!

whatever, because of this guys recklessnes, others lost life. They should consider worst case scenarios when constructing such flyovers. Design is faulty ofcourse.

BS , did you seethe videos .....did you see the speed ..... 

based on the area, land, terrain the roads are designed and speed is determined ....... including the buffer speed ............

if you cross that .....physics will not allow you and you be out of control

HYDERABAD: A second accident on the newly inaugurated flyover at Biodiversity Complex junction near Gachibowli in a matter of just two weeks, has raised doubts whether there are any faults in the way the flyover has been designed. 

 Civil engineering experts from the city speaking to Express pointed out that the structure has been planned poorly, thus making the ride on it a risky one. 
 
Dr KM Lakshmana Rao, professor of transportation engineering at Jawaharlal Nehru Technical University, Hyderabad, said, “The first issue is a major fault with the alignment of the flyover. For every horizontal curve, there should be a transitional zone, which is missing.

The inner radius and the outer radius of the horizontal curve is non-symmetrical. If you let the driver opt for the inner curve, it leads to a higher risk of such accidents. There are multiple planning faults, and it should be rectified by providing higher railings with road safety rollers which will transform the impact shock into rotational force”.

He further said, “Secondly, the starting point of the vertical gradient itself has been wrongly chosen. The location of ascent should be extended, it is too short.

Because of this fault, the vertical curve, and the horizontal curve get inserted into each other. There is supposed to be spacing between these two curves and the lack of this spacing leads to the accident occurrence in the form of a shock. It is not by virtue of any vehicle’s fault.”

He said, “The improper land use to build the flyover has led to the compromise of its geometrical alignment. This has affected the safety of the commuters, which is extremely painful and disheartening.” 

Kumar Molugaram, Professor of civil engineering and transportation at Osmania University said, “The curves are very sharp on the flyover and require proper signage that is visible from a substantial distance so that the drivers are warned to reduce speed.

Additionally, rumble strips should also be constructed through the entire course of the curve.” 

The flyover also provides a bird’s eye view of the area, and has led to many commuters stopping on it to take selfies, often standing dangerously close to the flyover’s edge and leaning over the railings.

ahh, your physics laws killed a lady just for standing on road. Maybe little banking of road or higher walls on outer end of road would have saved her. It's common sense for experienced contractors who are into this business.

Ascent steep ga unte drivers will push their accelerator. Inka speeding ayye chances untayiga? Moreover there are two s shaped curves after the ascent anta..

Yes those all things are required ....... plus the drivers need to drive slowly on these flyovers ...... especially if you are new the road then much more careful .......

While there issues about roads in India (which anyways) we have to live with it ..... but drivers need to be careful for not killing others by crossing traffic rules ........ It is unfortunate in India ...... in US by this time it would have decided weather driver is at fault or the state and then the killed individuals would have got compensation accordingly ...........
