The project will be finished in three stages. The modernisation of the tower circles will include multi-level parking.

A total of 35 km of road has been constructed. Amritsar Swarnadevalayam scenic roads, LED lighting, and a pedestrian and cyclist-only pathway will be built. Tourist attractions are being built on the outskirts.

Suspension bridge construction is already completed and the bridge is ready for use. A DCR has been prepared with Rs 130 crore to develop greenery from Padma Nagar bypass to the NTR statue.

The funds for the Maneru River Front were recently released by CM KCR, and construction is about to begin. A few parks in the city are currently being developed.
