Hyderabad: Travelling to Rajiv Gandhi International Airport will be a costly affair soon if the Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority has its way.
After losing 36 major revenue-making gram panchayats, and along with them nearly Rs 200 crore revenue per annum, the cash-starved HMDA is proposing to collect user charges from motorists using the P.V. Narasimha Rao Expressway to offset the loss.
Constructed at a cost of over Rs 600 crore, the 11.5 km-long PVNR elevated expressway is presently being used free of cost by motorists, mainly passengers going to and fro the international airport at Shamshabad.
HMDA to submit proposal to levy charges shortly.
