Poor road design, execution turn Hyderabad roads to rivers

Heavy rains in Hyderabad have exposed the poor quality and flawed design of the city’s 9,000 km road network. Experts criticized GHMC for not following proper geometric principles, leading to water-logging. Key areas like Habsiguda, Uppal stadium road, and Raj Bhavan road faced severe stagnation. Unmaintained stormwater drains exacerbated the situation, causing civic issues.
