Summary:
The Ameerpet to Hi-Tec City stretch is the most important link and is expected to see the maximum traffic. Once the Metro rail chugs into Hi-Tec City as well, it will help ease the traffic congestion in the region, said Reddy, on Saturday.Speaking to TOI on Saturday, Reddy said “Most of the works pertaining to the Hi-Tec City stretch have already beencompleted. Earlier this month, Bengaluru-based vehicle rental and peer-to-peer vehicle sharing platform Drivezy launched 125 bikes for first and last mile connectivity for Hyderabad Metro Rail commuters at the Balanagar, Kukatpally , Prakash Nagar, Tarnaka and Mettuguda stations. The Metro rail is currently running trial runs for the JBS-MGBS stretch of the Metro rail and also working on integrating the Ameerpet – L B Nagar and Ameerpet – Hi-Tec City sections.According to Reddy, the HiTec City Metro rail is the most crucial and ‘eagerly awaited’ link in city’s Metro rail network and is expected to draw the maximum traffic in comparison with other operational routes. Only signalling works and a few technical works are currently being carried out parallelly..
