A proposed one-way loop in Hyderabad’s western IT corridor will connect key stretches of Hi-Tech City, Biodiversity and Knowledge City as Cyberabad Traffic Police seek to reduce delays at four major bottleneck junctions during peak hours.
The proposed route would run from Biodiversity Junction through IKEA Rotary, Raheja Mindspace C-Gate, Knowledge City and Dallas Centre, before taking a right turn at My Home Bhooja and reconnecting with Biodiversity Junction. The plan envisages using the full carriageway width along the continuous one-way corridor to reduce delays at junctions and improve the movement of vehicles.
The proposal is aimed at areas that carry significant commuter traffic, including the office and commercial districts around Hi-Tech City, Knowledge City and Biodiversity Junction. The traffic police have not yet announced a final implementation date or confirmed that the one-way system will be introduced in its proposed form.
Cyberabad Police Commissioner M. Ramesh, Joint Commissioner of Police (Traffic) Sunpreet Singh, senior traffic police officers and SCSC CEO Naveed Khan inspected the proposed route on Wednesday. The inspection focused on the existing road infrastructure and the junction-level challenges that could affect the operation of the loop.
According to Commissioner Ramesh, traffic simulation trials will be conducted in the coming days to assess vehicle speeds and traffic density under the proposed arrangement. The trials are intended to help the authorities evaluate how traffic would move through the connected stretches before a final execution strategy is prepared.
The police will also consult IT companies, business establishments and other stakeholders in the corridor. These consultations are expected to gather feedback on the proposed diversions and the likely effects on employees, commercial establishments and other road users.
Ramesh said the system would be implemented in phases after stakeholder suggestions are considered and the execution strategy is finalised. The authorities will issue detailed traffic advisories and route-diversion information in advance so commuters can plan their journeys and reduce inconvenience when implementation begins.
The proposal places the immediate focus on managing traffic at junctions rather than announcing new road construction. Its next formal steps are the planned simulation trials, stakeholder consultations and finalisation of the phased implementation strategy.
