Landscaped greenery and vertical gardens under several Hyderabad flyovers are drying up due to rising summer temperatures and inadequate watering. Citizens have raised concerns over poor maintenance, while GHMC officials said efforts are underway to restore the greenery before the monsoon season.
Once a multidirectional eco-memory of trees, dogs, and other nonhumans, the road to glitzy corporate, educational, and industrial hubs in Hyderabad is now a mono-memory — dominated by humans and their wheels
Environmental activists and NGO members staged a protest near Indo-American Cancer Hospital against tree cutting for H-CITI project works around KBR Park. The protesters demanded public hearings, environmental impact assessments and better public transport solutions instead of flyovers and underpasses.
The GHMC will begin construction of flyovers and underpasses under KBR Park Package-II works next week, covering four key junctions. Officials inspected the sites under the H-CITI initiative ahead of grounding the Rs 510-crore project
The flyovers under various stages of construction are coming up in Kondapur, Shaikpet, Balanagar, Bairamalguda and Owaisi Junction, with four of them to be opened to the public this year itself.
