Traffic around KBR Park goes one-way with 10 U-turn points and 13 exits from August 18
The lane-change and U-turn points are located at TG Study Circle, BRS Bhavan, Omega Hospital, Jana Reddy, Apollo Cradle, Taj Mahal, Phoenix Building, Road No. 65, Mantri Towers and Cream Stone.
From August 18, vehicular traffic around KBR Park will be restricted to a single direction in an effort to alleviate congestion, as preparations commence for the ₹1,090-crore H-CITI project. The corridor’s second busiest point, the KBR Park Entrance stretch, currently handles 13,516 passenger car units per hour. This new one-way system will replace numerous turning movements with designated lane-change and U-turn points, totaling 10 such points and 13 exits.
The implementation of the plan, which involves constructing seven steel flyovers and seven directional underpasses, is expected to streamline traffic flow and reduce bottlenecks at key junctions. The 24-month project is divided into two phases, with the first focusing on the Jubilee Hills Check Post, KBR Park Entrance, and Mughdha Junction, while the second will address Road No. 45, Film Nagar, Maharaja Agrasen, and Basavatarakam Cancer Hospital junctions.
Hyderabad City Police Commissioner V.C. Sajjanar stated that the traffic plan, developed after thorough studies and consultations with residents, will enhance traffic management and potentially decrease fuel consumption and carbon emissions by minimizing vehicle idling.
