Hyderabad : Principal Secretary Municipal Administration Arvind Kumar today inspected the Nizampet – Bachupally road and asked the officials to prepare a road development plan for widening of existing 60 feet road to 100 feet wide in order to reduce traffic congestion. Nizampet has a population of more than 2.5 lakhs and as most of the population being IT professionals, there is a huge traffic flow from Nizampet to Hi-tech city through JNTU and Forum Mall which is heavy loaded corridor causing lot of traffic jams. The total length of the road from Nizampet cross road to Bachupally is about 8 Kms out of which 1.50 Kms is under control of HRDCL while the remaining is under the control of R&B department.
Arvind Kumar observed that for de-congestion of traffic on Nizampet road, alternative parallel road needs to be strengthened and widened to 100 feet road. He suggested to develop two alternative roads parallel to existing Hi-tech city road passing through Forum mall and JNTU. The first option suggested by the consultants was a road from HITEX Kaman of NAC road to Indu Fortune followed by Vasantha Vihar colony adjacent to JNTU which leads to Nizampet duly providing ROB in between Vasantha City and Indu Fortune. The second option was from Miyapur Metro depot to Calvary temple. The Principal Secretary directed the officials to examine both the proposals immediately, J.
