The Story in Brief
Hyderabad Traffic Police will enforce a one-way system around Kasu Brahmananda Reddy National Park from August 18 for about 1.5 years. The change is to allow construction of seven flyovers and underpasses under the H-CITI project. Joint Commissioner D Joel Davis said work has begun on 17 pillars on Road No 2 and the KBR Park-to-Checkpost stretch. Around 110 more pillars and underpasses are yet to be built, reducing carriageway width by 30 to 40 per cent at several spots.
Key restrictions include no direct right turn at NTR Bhavan; commuters must turn left toward KBR Park. Right turn from Road No 45 to Film Nagar is restricted in the evening. Police have released a detailed route map with alternative paths via Journalist Colony, Srinagar Colony T-Junction, and other roads.
The Indian Opinion
Hyderabadis already wrestling with traffic may wonder if yet another long-term diversion is worth it. The police say 110 more pillars and underpasses are coming, reducing road width by up to 40 per cent. This is not a small tweak but a city-brace disruption. The test will be whether the promised H-CITI project delivers actual travel time savings after 18 months, not just more concrete.
