H-CITI Takes Off: New Road Project Launched

IT & Industries Minister D. Sridhar Babu laid the foundation stone on June 26, 2025, for the road-widening project from NH-65 to Ameenpur, with an estimated investment of ₹45 crore. This initiative is part of the broader Hyderabad City Innovative and Transformative Infrastructure (H-CITI) project, which has a total outlay of ₹7,032 crore.

Describing H-CITI as a transformative step toward urban mobility enhancement, the Minister highlighted its focus on reducing traffic congestion, improving connectivity, and cutting travel times through the development of flyovers, underpasses, and road expansions. “This project reflects Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy’s vision of making Hyderabad a national benchmark in urban infrastructure,” Sridhar Babu stated.

In line with the state’s push for sustainable urban planning, the Minister also announced the deployment of 1,000 electric buses under the Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TGSRTC), with an additional 800 buses under consideration. Supporting infrastructure such as EV charging stations and AI-powered traffic signals is also in the pipeline, aimed at promoting eco-friendly transportation and enhancing pedestrian safety across the city.
