The four-kilometre Barkas-Pahadishareef road in Hyderabad has potholes, steep curves and poor lighting, residents say. The busy route connects residential colonies and carries traffic towards Rajiv Gandhi International Airport. Residents report missing warning signs near sharp curves, limited traffic signals and little traffic police presence. They say poor visibility at night makes driving difficult and contributes to congestion and unsafe conditions.
Residents have asked the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation and traffic police to repair the road, improve lighting and markings, install signage, and regulate traffic during peak hours. The report cites concerns from Barkas and Pahadishareef residents, but does not include an official response from the authorities.
Residents’ concerns appear linked to visible road and lighting problems, but claims that the stretch is accident-prone need support from official accident data. Warnings about a possible major accident highlight urgency, though they should not be treated as proof of imminent danger. A joint inspection by civic and traffic authorities could establish priorities and clarify responsibility for repairs and regulation.
