Hyderabad: In a coordinated move to tackle worsening congestion and streamline urban mobility, the Cyberabad Traffic Police and GHMC officials held a joint meeting on Thursday to initiate a comprehensive smart mobility plan across high-density zones.
Focus on congestion, safety, and infra upgrades
The meeting, held at the Cyberabad CP Office, brought together Cyberabad Joint Commissioner (Traffic) Gajarao Bhupal and senior GHMC officials from Serilingampally and Charminar Zones. The discussions focused on resolving persistent traffic issues, particularly in the IT corridor, through infrastructure and operational reforms.
Officials identified urgent interventions to reduce congestion, improve pedestrian safety, and address drainage and road maintenance issues.
Key measures under joint action plan
The joint action plan includes:
- Construction of underpasses, flyovers, and foot overbridges (FOBs) at critical junctions
- Alternate route planning for anticipated congestion during KNR works at IIIT Junction
- Development of footpaths, skywalks, service roads, and protected crossings
- Fast-tracking road repairs and pending civic works
- Road widening, removal of dividers, and introduction of free left turns
- Shifting of bus bays and shelters causing bottlenecks
- Installation of high-mast lights, lane markings, and functional signals
- Regular drain cleaning to prevent waterlogging
- Clearing encroachments obstructing traffic
The initiative also includes continuous inter-departmental review meetings to ensure accountability and timely execution.
Senior police officers including DCPs Sai Manohar and Ranjan Ratan Kumar, ADCPs, ACPs from Madhapur, Medchal, and Balanagar divisions, traffic inspectors, and GHMC engineers participated in the session.
The integrated effort aims to ease traffic flow, boost commuter safety, and enhance road infrastructure in the rapidly growing Cyberabad region.
