Hyderabad: Cyberabad Police Commissioner M Ramesh on Friday unveiled plans for a technology-driven student mobility system aimed at easing traffic congestion near schools and improving child safety across the commissionerate.
Addressing over 5,000 parents through a live YouTube interaction, the Commissioner said nearly two lakh vehicles crowd school campuses during peak pick-up and drop hours, creating severe traffic snarls and safety risks.
The proposed ‘Student Mobility Digital Public Infrastructure’ will integrate RTC and private transport services through a verified and compliance-based platform. The initiative will also involve trained gig workers, ASHA workers and Anganwadi staff as attendants and mobility supervisors.
A joint survey by Cyberabad Police and the Society for Cyberabad Security Council (SCSC), covering 526 educational institutions and 4.1 lakh students, identified major gaps in the existing transport system.
The project, inspired by London’s Transport for London (TfL) model, will feature route optimisation, CCTV-monitored vehicles, digital coordination and centralised monitoring through the Cyberabad Police Command and Control Centre.
