"Our objective is to minimise the need for vehicles to halt at traffic signals within the city, thereby ensuring a smooth flow of traffic. Measures were also taken to clear encroachments from footpaths in order to safeguard human lives and allocated designated spaces for street vendors. To ease the parking problem, a multi-level car parking facility was also established near KBR Park. The works for the elevated corridors along the Nalgonda and Vijayawada routes are also under progress," he said.
