Traffic speed in Hyderabad improved by 6 kmph, says Police Commissioner CV Anand
HYDERABAD: The average traffic speed in the city has increased by 6 kmph compared to last year, thanks to Operation Rope and other initiatives by the Hyderabad Traffic Police, said Police Commissioner CV Anand. Speaking to the media at TGICCC, Banjara Hills, he noted that around 1,600 vehicles are being added to the city's roads every day. A year ago, the average speed was 17-18 kmph, which has now risen to 24-25 kmph. Across the three commissionerates, about 91 lakh vehicles are on the roads, with nearly 70% of them being two-wheelers. 'Though vehicle numbers keep rising, a 6 kmph increase in average speed is no small achievement,' Anand said. He said Operation Rope helped clear carriageways and improve vehicle flow. 'We're following a systematic approach to manage VIP and VVIP movements across the city,' he added. Explaining further, Anand said police are now handling VIP movement in a more planned and efficient manner. 'Earlier, we used manual mode during VIP movements. But now we're slowly shifting to automation, using manual intervention only when necessary. Even Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy has instructed us not to block traffic unnecessarily for his movement,' he said. He added that CCTV cameras have been installed on top of 25 high-rise buildings in the city. 'These provide a bird's-eye view of traffic, helping us evaluate and manage congestion better. More cameras will be added soon.' The traffic police are also using two drones to monitor road congestion and manage traffic. 'The drones help us identify where congestion starts and builds up, so we can act on it quickly,' Anand said.

Average speed of vehicle in city is 25 kmph: Hyd'bad police chief
Hyderabad: Hyderabad City Police Commissioner C V Anand emphasised that the average vehicle speed in the city has significantly increased to 24 to 25 kilometres per hour, up from last year's 17 to 18 kmph. The Commissioner attributed these positive results to the diligent efforts of the Hyderabad Traffic Police and extended his sincere thanks to everyone involved. On Friday, during a review meeting on traffic problems in Hyderabad City and their solutions, C V Anand noted that approximately 1,600 new vehicles are added to the roads every day. Across the three Commissionerates, a staggering total of 91 lakh vehicles are on the roads daily. During the meeting, the Commissioner provided guidance on the fundamental principles of traffic control and management. He stated that currently, 80 per cent of traffic signals in Hyderabad are operating on auto mode, which is effectively helping to clear traffic quickly. Regarding traffic violations, police are focusing on the quality of penalties rather than merely the quantity of fines imposed. This strategic approach, he explained, has led to a reduction in overall traffic fines. 'We are monitoring Hyderabad's traffic through drone cameras. To further improve Hyderabad's traffic system, we are taking assistance from Google. In addition to Google Maps, Google is also providing us with technical support,' he revealed. The Commissioner highlighted that, with the cooperation of owners of high rise multi storied buildings in Hyderabad, 25 'high rise cameras' are being installed on these buildings to obtain an 'Eagle View'. Through these, traffic officials can proactively identify traffic problems, alert local traffic authorities, and provide suggestions for appropriate solutions.
