Hyderabad police on Tuesday introduced a one-way traffic system around KBR Park that will remain in force for 18 months, as work begins on the Rs 1,090-crore H-CITI project to ease congestion at seven junctions. The Times of India reports that Jubilee Hills checkpost is the worst bottleneck, handling 15,321 passenger car units per hour during peak hours, followed by KBR Park entrance with 13,516 PCU/hr. The project includes seven multi-level steel flyovers and seven directional underpasses, with administrative sanction issued on December 3, 2024. Joint Commissioner of Police D Joel Davis said the system is a unidirectional flow and will be monitored through the Integrated Command and Control Centre, CCTV network and drones, Siasat.com reports. Wrong-side driving will invite action. Walkers have been told to park only in designated bays. Police commissioner VC Sajjanar said the temporary inconvenience will lead to long-term benefit, with the structures expected to resolve traffic issues completely at five junctions and reduce bottlenecks at Jubilee Hills checkpost by 80 per cent. The project is expected to be completed in 24 months.
