Hyderabad-Secunderabad
metro under construction
According to one article, an elevated light rail proposal in the sister cities has "been
cleared". Nothing more is available at this time.
A 2 line, 42.6 km
intercity commuter rail known as the Metro (MMTS), run by the South Central
Railways, is also under construction (see photo). Phase I is due to open in
June, 2003. None of the route is underground.
Also planned construction is a new genuine metro. The
techno-economic feasibility report has recently been completed by the same
company that brought you the Delhi metro. It consists of a two line, mostly
elevated
system. Line 1 will run east to west axis, and line 2 will run on the
north-south axis parallel to existing MMTS tracks (phase II) but completely
separate from it. Construction is due to begin in 2010.
