What will be the length of the four-lane road over bridge coming up between the Guntur and Nambur railway stations?
- A.468 metres
- B.568 metres
- C.668 metres
- D.768 metres
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 668 metres. The road over bridge whose foundation stone was laid between the Guntur and Nambur railway stations in Andhra Pradesh will run 668 metres and carry four lanes of traffic. It has been sanctioned at a cost of 108 crore rupees, the whole of which is being paid by the Ministry of Railways, and it requires 2.9 acres of land. Option A, 468 metres, option B, 568 metres, and option D, 768 metres, are all wrong because none of them is the figure announced for this bridge; only the 668-metre length is correct. Candidates should link the length with the other numbers of the project, because a question paper may ask for the cost or the land instead of the length.
