07 Jan 2025 CW Team

The Telangana state government has revealed plans to hire project consultants to assist with the development of the Regional Ring Road (RRR), which will enhance connectivity across Telangana.

The RRR will span approximately 200 km in the southern region, connecting areas such as Sangareddy, Narsapur, Toopran, Choutuppal, and Amangal. Furthermore, the state intends to build a unique economic growth corridor surrounding the RRR, aiming to transform Hyderabad and its nearby areas into an economic hub. This corridor will consist of an access-controlled highway extending radially from 30 to 50 kilometres from the Outer Ring Road (ORR) of Hyderabad.

The state's Roads and Buildings (R&B) department has invited proposals from consultants for the preparation of detailed project reports (DPR), project management units (PMU), and advisory services on technical, financial, and transaction matters related to the RRR. The consultant will guide the R&B department in developing the RRR, which is expected to stimulate industrialisation, regional connectivity, and urbanisation.

The economic corridor is envisioned as a catalyst for growth, fostering balanced regional development, attracting private investment, and supporting sustainable, long-term expansion.
