HAML MD Mr. NVS Reddy inspects Medchal & Shamirpet Metro Rail corridors

To resolve some of the technical issues in alignment of the Metro Rail corridors to Medchal and Shamirpet, Hyderabad Airport Metro Ltd (HAML) MD Mr.NVS Reddy inspected them along with senior engineers and the technical consultants on Sunday.

Due to steep curvature of the road from Paradise to Bowenpally along the airport boundary and the insistence of Airport authorities, HMDA is taking its elevated corridor’s alignment below the runway of Begumpet airport (Tadbund/Bowenpally side) for about 600 mtrs through a tunnel.

To resolve this complication and also to develop a world class integrated Metro rail hub at JBS, CM Mr. A.Revanth Reddy asked HAML MD to examine the feasibility of combining both Paradise-Medchal; and JBS-Shamirpet Metro corridors initially and split it into two corridors of Medchal and Shamirpet thereafter.

Considering this suggestion of CM, the MD and his team walked in Cantonment area to find the best possible Metro rail alignment. During the inspection it is found advantageous to combine both the Metro corridors in the beginning at JBS.

This will also have the advantage of providing direct link for the Medchal corridor with the airport corridor, establishing an end-to-end 60km Metro corridor of Medchal-JBS-MGBS-Chandrayangutta-Airport link.
Regarding JBS-Shamirpet Metro alignment, it is feasible to straight away extend it from the existing first Metro pillar near Secunderabad Club as a double elevated structure over the proposed HMDA elevated corridor on Karimnagar Highway which is being widened by HMDA.

The MD also indicated that plans will be prepared to develop JBS as a mega Metro hub to cater to the commuting and other needs of residents of Secunderabad and northern parts of the city, apart from those who are coming from northern Telangana districts as advised by the CM, by pooling in about 30 acres of land belonging to the State Government and the Defence authorities in the vicinity of JBS.
