North Hyderabad Metro expansion approved with double-decker corridors, enhancing connectivity from Paradise to Medchal and JBS to Shamirpet.

The long-awaited metro expansion in North Hyderabad has received Chief Minister Revanth Reddy's approval for the preparation of detailed project reports (DPRs). It is an initiative to decongest traffic and enhance the connectivity of the region. The 23 km link is from Paradise to the Medchal area, while the other 22 km stretch is between the Jubilee Bus Station (JBS) and Shamirpet.
One unique aspect of this project is that double-decker corridors will carry elevated roads along with Metro viaducts. According to officials, HAML, along with HMDA, will study the technical feasibility of these structures when preparing the detailed project report (DPR). The chief minister has directed HAML managing director NVS Reddy to fast-track the preparation of the detailed project reports and submits them to the Union government along with Metro Rail Phase-2, Part-B. Timeliness is the essence of the project, and Revanth Reddy has set a deadline of three months for this process.

... The Paradise-Medchal corridor will cover the important areas of Tadbund, Bowenpally, Kompally, GundlaPochampally, and the ORR Exit. Likewise, the JBS-Shamirpet line will pass through vehicular growth centres such as Vikrampuri, Karkhana, Trimulgherry, Alwal, and Bollaram, facilitating better connectivity to these major business hubs.
While discussing with MAUD Principal Secretary M Dana Kishore and NVS Reddy, CM Revanth Reddy stressed the need for traffic solutions along with urban development. Referencing his time as Malkajgiri MP in the past, he stressed addressing the need to tackle traffic issues in Secunderabad and its neighbouring areas.
Under a public-private partnership (PPP) model, the HMDA had previously proposed two elevated corridors to ease congestion — a stretch from Paradise Junction to Shamirpet ORR (11.12 km) and a stretch from Paradise Junction to dairy farm road (5.32 km). Now, these corridors are planned to tie up with new metro expansion plans or vice versa.
NVS Reddy said DPR preparations were done per instructions from the chief minister. Like Phase-2, Part-A, the project will be funded as a joint venture between Union and state governments.
