GHMC, police to coordinate for better traffic management

Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) commissioner M Dana Kishore and police commissioners of Hyderabad, Cyberabad and Rachakonda said they will coordinate directly with traffic police and monitor contractors to ensure the signals work. A decision to this effect was taken at a meeting of GHMC officials at their head office on Thursday.

The state government has allocated Rs.200 crore to improve traffic management in the city after a series of complaints from the public regarding dysfunctional traffic signals. As per



GHMC records, 88 of 221 traffic signals in Hyderabad were almost defunct.
