Strategies to decongest traffic in Hyderabad’s IT corridor discussed with tech companies
Staggered timings, deployment of traffic marshals, car-pooling, implementation of a centralised public transport system and regular crisis management drills to ensure preparedness and effective response during emergencies were the key traffic decongestion strategies discussed in the cluster meeting organised by the Cyberabad Commissionerate with the Society for Cyberabad Security Council (SCSC).
The meetings, conducted in Phoenix Infocity in Gachibowli, and Sattva Knowledge City in Raidurgam, with IT and ITES companies in the area, were chaired by Cyberabad Joint Commissioner of Police D. Joel Davis to discuss effective strategies for traffic decongestion in the bustling IT corridor.
“By spreading out the rush hour traffic, congestion during peak hours can be significantly reduced while carpooling can help to reduce traffic congestion, lower carbon emissions, and promote sustainable commuting practices,” the official said.
About 50 traffic marshals have been provided by SCSC while an additional 30 have been contributed by Raheja Mindspace to assist in regulating traffic flow and ensuring smoother movement within the IT campuses.
According to the officials, a centralised transport system to streamline public transportation and enhance connectivity across different regions could be a game changer in tackling the traffic situation and bringing down commuting times.
