Hyderabad: The TGSRTC’s Greater Hyderabad region authorities are planning a major expansion of its bus infrastructure, with Uppal reportedly set to get a new bus terminal amid the growing number of electric buses and rapid expansion of the city’s suburbs.

The RTC plans to remove the existing district bus parking facility at Nalla Cheruvu near the Peerzadiguda Kaman and develop a modern terminal at the Uppal workshop premises.
