It's not a T-Shaped road. The road below the ORR is taking 90 degree turn immediately after the junction. So many assume its a t junction. If you observe carefully you will notice that.

watch out in Google earth or maps and u will get a better idea of how the junction is. Its not a t junction. If you notice on the extreme upper left side of the picture, the road under the ORR is taking almost 90 degree turn and goes towards famous Hyderabad Chilukuru temple

Yup saw that. I thought the road ends after merging into the ORR.
But there can be better (but costlier) ways to merge the traffic. I think that in this case the two roundabouts can lead to confusion.

It looks like the cheapest and most effective .........Nothing beats the efficiency of roundabouts.

When you zoom in so much as is done in the video, a slight movement will cause the image to shift a lot, hence why it's wobbly. Road is top class...

Expansion of ORR radial roads in a phased manner

HYDERABAD: The Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority (HMDA) will expand two more radial roads for better connectivity to the Outer Ring Road (ORR) in a month.

The two radial roads, Shaikpet to Kokapet (ORR) and Radhika Theatre to Yadgarpally ORR road via Thumkunta, will be taken up once the state government gives the administrative sanction. The work would be taken up with financial assistance from the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).

Apart from these two, three other roads have already been taken up. HMDA had identified 33 radial roads for smooth flow of traffic from the inner ring road to ORR. These roads were identified based on traffic flow studies, which recommended that these stretches need to be widened and developed to ensure a hassle-free travel to reach ORR.

While seven radial roads were completed by the HMDA, another five would be taken up in the next few months. The roads and buildings (R&B) department and the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) have also taken up expansion of their respective roads.

HMDA officials claim that by the time the entire 158-km ORR is ready, all radial roads should be expanded to have better connectivity to the ORR. As all roads cannot be taken up at one go as it requires Rs 2,500 crore and with JICA agreeing to give only Rs 380 crore loan to the HMDA, development of radial roads would be taken up in a phased manner.

The HMDA bears 30% of the cost, while R&B and municipal administration and urban development departments contribute 25% and 10% respectively.

HMDA has already called tenders for the development of three radial roads, Gandimaisamma-Dundigal road (Hyderabad to Bodhan road), ECIL Crossroads to Keesara (near Cherial Crossroads) and Nagole junction to Gowrelly crossroads. These roads, of nearly 34 km length, would be taken up at a cost of about Rs 207 crore with the JICA loan.

"The authority received about 25 tenders for the three radial roads, which are under technical evaluation. Tenders will be finalised in a couple of weeks and work will begin immediately. Two more radial roads will be taken up once the state government gives clearance," ORR chief general manager N Surya Prakash Reddy told TOI on Monday.

According to the officials, seven roads such as Indian School of Business to Gachibowli ORR, Agriculture University, Rajendranagar to APRL, Langer Houz to Vikarabad, a four-lane road from Tippu Khan bridge to Gandipet (Narsingi), Byramalguda junction towards Nagarjunasagar road to ORR and Pahadisharif to Tukkuguda on Srisailam state highway, of nearly 50 km length were expanded at a cost of Rs 380 crore.

Based on traffic density, the roads were widened to four, six and eight lanes and road development plans, including construction of footpaths, central median with lighting and beautification works, were being taken up on these stretches.

The video above of the Hyderabad ORR makes me happy. It looks like its has been made to a good quality with hard shoulders. The speed limit is 120 so finally we got rid of the 80kmh ridiculous speed limit on expressways (MPE).
