Hyderabad Future Developments

[Gudavalli]

This thread is dedicated towards discussing future projects in the city.

Here are some projects - I know some of them have already been completed and some are ongoing. There are some which I didn't know too.

Note - Some of these projects have their own threads so it would be appropriate to post in there.

1. Hyderabad International Airport is projected to be India's largest, spread over at least 5500 acres (22 km²). This international airport will also serve as an aviation hub for air traffic of from the U.S., Europe and East Asia. It began its operations on 23 March 2008.

2. Hardware Park will come up on an area of around 2500 acres (10 km²) for silicon chip manufacturing. Land allotment has been done to set up a manufacturing and R&D base for INTEL, AMD, ZEN Technologies and many more reputable semi-conductor MNCs.

3. SemIndia/Fab City, Hyderabad beat other contenders (such as Mysore and Chennai) to win the mandate for India's first semiconductor wafer fabrication plant or 'fab' to be set up by SemIndia Inc. They are licensed from U.S.-based chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) Inc., with an investment of around $3 billion. SemIndia will also set up an assembly, test, mark, packing (ATMP) facility close to the fab unit. The SemIndia plant is expected to come up on 1,200 acres (5 km2) at Srinagar which is on Srisailam Highway and close to the Hyderabad International Airport at Shamshabad.

4. At Nanotech Park with an area of 1,100 acres (4 km2), a Korean firm, Intellect Inc., with an estimated investment of $1 billion has already laid the foundation of the company's presence. Manufacturing was to commence around October 2007. This would provide direct employment to around 20,000 skilled personnel. Its Phase II is anticipated to be completed by 2010, thereby creating a job pool of around 100,000 people.

5. The Gems and Jewellery Park, an area of 200 acres (0.81 km2), land allotment to Geentajali Jewellers would create job opportunities for 2,000 people by the end of 2008. Several MNC jewellers — especially from Dubai, Singapore, Hong Kong, and other countries — will follow suit.

6. For the Textiles Park 500 acres (2.0 km2) of land has been allotted to Sarode Hycot Textiles. This will be the largest textile park ever set up by the Central Government and will create job opportunities for at least 100,000 people by establishing close to 2000 power looms between 2008 and 2010.

7. Birla Institute of Technology and Science (BITS) has announced the launch of its third campus in India at Hyderabad. The BITS campus at Hyderabad is spread over 200 acres (0.81 km2) of land at Jawaharnagar near Shamirpet in Rangareddy district.

8. EMAAR Group of Dubai to build a seven-star hotel in the proximity of Hyderabad International Airport on a land area of around 700 acres (2.8 km2) which will also contain a large golf course.

9. Reliance will acquire 25,000 acres (110 km²) of land around the Vijayawada Highway at Ibrahimpatnam to set up its LPG plant. An eight-lane direct road will link the Reliance Plant area to the Shamshabad ring road.

10. Aero Park, which would cater to the aerospace and aeronautics industries, is proposed to be established near the Hyderabad International Airport under the aegis of the Federation of Andhra Pradesh Small Industries Associations. This would consume around 200 acres (0.81 km2) of land. Hyderabad has emerged as a major centre during last couple of years in production of aerospace and aeronautical components and subsystems. In total, there are around 60 units manufactured with an annual turnover of 150 Crores. This will be augmented at Aero Park by an investment of 250-300 Crores annually leading to production of at least 100 units.

11. The Outer-Ring-Road, the longest of its kind in the country, would stretch to at least 170 km around Hyderabad, with exit points. Work has already commenced and it will be like a beltway without any traffic signals and eight-lane roads plus two service lines.

12. India's biggest/longest flyover — a flyover from Mehdipatnam — would link up to a road close by Hyderabad International Airport at Shamshabad. The project has been allotted 800 Crore rupees and stipulated timelines. This will be one of very few long flyovers in India.

13. Air-conditioned Volvo service from Hitech City to Shamshabad will be started and will ply every seven minutes nonstop to the airport and would take approximately 30 minutes.

14. The Trade Center tower will be either a single 60-story tower — the first to reach such heights in India — or more than two towers of 30-40 floors each. The towers will be near Manchirevula village and cater to the IT industry, other businesses, and a stock market. The government selected Manchirevula because of its proximity to the airport and the outer ring road passing by the village. The government has issued GO Ms No. 269 handing over the project to APIIC. The Ranga Reddy district have handed over 100 acres (0.40 km2) of land, in survey numbers 283 and 311, to the corporation to prepare the groundwork. A Bangalore-based construction firm along with a Malaysian firm are working on this project.

18. Georgia Institute of Technology near Hyderabad to Srisailam Highway.

19. SkyBus Service is planned to connect the airport to some of the major destinations like Cyber Towers and Hitec City.
20. Knowledge Corridor: The Dubai Government is interested in partnering with AP to develop the Hyderabad Knowledge Corridor. The project is aimed at being the hub for all IT activities from animation to financial software. Dr. J.C. Mohanty, principal secretary to the IT and communications department for AP said that this project will be lain across 20,000 acres (80 km²) stretching from Kanamet to Kollur covering about 34 Revenue Villages.
21. Agha Khan International University is to be built on at least 100 acres (0.40 km2) of land.

22. IIM is coming up with 150 acres (0.61 km2) which will be the biggest IIMs in India beating IIM-A.

23. Hyderabad Metro Rail project starting from Shamshabad Airport via Gachibowli will eventually reach Raheja Mindspace and Hitech City. This will be a 71 km stretch, one of the largest projects of its kind in the world, and will be covered in 20 minutes.
