Hyderabad | Traffic chaos around KBR park in first few hours of one-way traffic arrangement; pedestrians worst hit
Cars and two-wheelers backed up for hundreds of meters on the connecting roads of Road no. 14, Rd no. 12, Road no. 10
Hyderabad saw severe traffic congestion on Tuesday morning as a new one-way traffic arrangement was implemented around KBR Park. Despite the attempt to streamline traffic flow and aid infrastructure projects, motorists faced extreme difficulty navigating through the area. By 11 a.m., cars and two-wheelers were backed up for hundreds of meters on connecting roads such as Road no. 14, Rd no. 12, Road no. 10, causing gridlock that spilled over into neighboring areas like Srinagar Colony and Yousufguda.
Pedestrians were particularly affected, with many struggling to cross the road for work or to catch public transport. A traffic official acknowledged the challenges faced by pedestrians and promised to address the issues, while commuters expressed frustration with the "stupid move" and "horrible traffic" caused by the one-way rule.
