GHMC announces development of 90 kilometers of cycle tracks in the city

As per the latest reports, the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) has announced the development of new cycle tracks throughout the city, adding 90 kilometers to the existing ones.

The temporary cycle tracks are being built in areas where a permanent one is not currently feasible, according to a statement issued by the GHMC following the review meeting on Friday.

After identifying such stretches, the GHMC will allow the road to be used as a cycle track until 8 a.m., after which it will be used for regular vehicular traffic as usual, the statement said.

All road segments currently under the purview of the Comprehensive Road Maintenance Programme (CRMP) will be utilized as bicycle paths. Cycling enthusiasts will have access to a total of 90 kilometers of temporary and permanent bicycle tracks on various stretches, some of which have already been opened.

In the coming months, the new permanent cycle tracks will be laid on a three-kilometer track from Habsiguda crossroad to Uppal crossroad, as well as a four-kilometer track from Bairamalguda crossroad to Owaisi Hospital junction and a four-kilometer track from Aramghar to PDP junction.

A two-kilometer cycle path from BioDiversity Junction to Leather Park, a 450-meter path from Rolling Hills to AIG Hospitals, and a 2.25-kilometer path from Khajaguda to Nanakramguda are also planned. Pavements are being built alongside the cycle tracks, and saplings are being planted in several locations.

The GHMC will construct a six-kilometer temporary cycle track around KBR National Park, a six-kilometer track from IKEA junction to Raidurg via Biodiversity, and a ten-kilometer track from IDL Lake to JNTU, which will include the Rainbow Vista to IDL Lake track.

A temporary track will be built from Hydernagar to Balanagar, while the road between Mettuguda crossroad and Habsiguda crossroad, and Buddha Bhavan up to the Indira Gandhi circle will have both permanent and temporary tracks.

A portion of the cycle path from IKEA to Raidurg will be permanent, while the remainder will be temporary.
