To set up safety and speed control measures on the bio-diversity flyover after the road accident that took place on Saturday, Municipal Administration and Urban Development Minister KT Rama Rao directed the officials to shut down the flyover for three days.
On Saturday, an overspeeding car fell down from the flyover and killed a woman waiting for an auto-rickshaw beneath the flyover. This was a third such case in 20 days after the flyover was inaugurated on November 3.
The police said that around 550 challans for Overspeed has been issued in the last six days averaging almost 100 violations of the speed limit, which is 40 km per day. After the minister directed the officials, Mayor Bonthu Rammohan ordered the respective authorities to shut the flyover and take-up speed regulation measures.

Distressed to hear about today's accident on Biodiversity flyover. Prima facie it appears to be result of over speeding; have directed GHMC Engineer-in-Chief & @cpcybd to close the flyover & get speed control/safety measures in place & an independent expert committee evaluation
