Telangana govt grants administrative sanction for Phase 2B of Hyderabad Metro
Telangana on Monday accorded administrative sanction for Phase 2B of Hyderabad Metro Rail (Phase 2B), estimated to cost Rs 19,579 crore, as a joint venture between the state government and Centre. The order in this regard from the Municipal Administration and Urban Development department, dated June 16, is applicable to three upcoming corridors. According to the order, after careful examination of the matter, the government accorded 'administrative sanction for implementation of Hyderabad Metro Rail Phase-II (B) project consisting of three corridors for a length of 86.1 km to be undertaken by Hyderabad Airport Metro Limited as a 50:50 Joint Venture (JV) project between Government of Telangana and Government of India…' The estimated cost will be funded through a JV model, adhering to the Government of India's norms and policy guidelines. While the state government will contribute Rs 5,874 crore (30%) of the total cost, the Centre will provide Rs 3,524 crore (18%). A significant portion, Rs 9,398 crore (48%), will be sourced as debt or loans from financial institutions like Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), Asian Development Bank (ADB), etc. Finally, a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) component will cover the remaining Rs 783 crore (4%). Under Phase 1, the state government operates three corridors covering 69 km and is the largest public-private partnership metro rail project in the world. Since 2017, the Hyderabad Metro Rail Ltd (HMRL) has been operating trains on the LB Nagar to Miyapur, Nagole to Raidurgam, and JBS to MGBS corridors. The stretch from MGBS to Falaknuma, however, has not materialised, mainly due to objections related to property acquisition and route alignment issues, and the new government has taken up the work for this stretch too along with the rest of the Phase 2 corridors. Under Phase 2A, a proposal covering five corridors (76.4 km) at an estimated cost of Rs 24,269 crore has been sent to the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA). Phase 2 A includes Corridor IV: Nagole – Shamshabad RGIA (Airport Corridor) stretching 36.8 km, Corridor V: Raidurg – Kokapet Neopolis covering 11.6 km, Corridor VI: MGBS – Chandrayangutta (Old City Corridor) extending 7.5 km, Corridor VII: Miyapur – Patancheru covering 13.4 km, and Corridor VIII: LB Nagar – Hayat Nagar stretching 7.1 km. The Hyderabad Airport Metro Limited (HAML) submitted proposals for Phase 2B to the government in May this year. Under Phase 2B, a 39.6-km stretch is proposed between RGIA to Future City (Skills University) as Corridor IX; a 24.5-km stretch is proposed between Jubilee Bus Station (JBS) and Medchal as Corridor X; and a 22-km stretch is proposed between JBS and Shamirpet as Corridor XI.
