Hyderabad: In order to ease traffic congestion on the eastern parts of the city, the Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority would lay a 16-km road from Peerzadiguda Kaman (NH-63) to Pratapa Singaram.
The 150-metre wide road would facilitate diversion of traffic via Gowrelli (Ghatkesar) towards the Outer Ring Road. The survey for a three-km stretch has been completed.
Highly-placed sources in HMDA said the road would de-congest traffic at Uppal junction. The radial road is being planned along River Musi within the buffer zone of 100 metres. This will be part of the River Musi Front Development.
Officials said this would facilitate smooth flow of traffic on the Warangal-Hyderabad route. Once the radial road is developed, it would help divert traffic via Gowrelli towards the ORR.
The project would be executed utilising funds from the Japan International Cooperation Agency. HMDA would require 100 acres for the road and has pooled 200 acres.
In total, HMDA would pool 500 acres of land on either side of the road to develop the area and set up IT companies and satellite townships.
