Western Hyderabad gets new facility to collect, recycle construction waste

Western Hyderabad is set for a new construction waste management facility, with a dedicated C&D waste transfer station opening in Gowlidoddi. The station, inaugurated on Monday by Special Chief Secretary Jayesh Ranjan, will serve as a collection point for debris from Narsingi, Nallagandla, Gachibowli, and Madhapur. This facility, run by Re Sustainability, aims to reduce transportation distances and prevent illegal dumping of construction waste.

It complements the existing C&D waste processing facility at Jeedimetla and is expected to improve vehicle utilization and lower transportation costs. The station will facilitate better recovery and reuse of construction materials, potentially reducing reliance on new resources. Officials emphasized treating C&D waste as a resource and incorporating its handling costs into project estimates.

The service provider will offer doorstep collection and processing services, with user charges based on prescribed norms.
