according to initial estimates:
=========================================================
Miyapur–Chaitanyapuri ............... 26.27 km with 25 stations,
Tarnaka-Panjagutta-Hitec City .... 20 km
Sec-bad-Falaknuma via Charminar. 13.18 km with 14 stations
=========================================================
estimated cost:........................... Rs. 6,366 Crore.
=========================================================
Several things have changed since then, like extension of some of the corridors,
new plans for integrated stations, world class commercial complexes at major stations etc.
there are also proposals to go for monorail for Sec-bad - Falknuma corridor.

Huda to sell 3,500 acres for ORR

Huda to sell 3,500 acres for ORR

With the government allocating about 2,000 acres of land on the outskirts of the city to the Hyderabad Urban Development Authority (Huda) to generate funds for phase-I of the Outer Ring Road (ORR) project, the civic authority is planning to sell 3,500 acres of land, including 1,500 acres of its own, in a phased manner in the next three years. The authorities are planning to sell only a portion of the total land for phase-I so that the better areas can be preserved till there is a rise in land value.

Work on phase-I was to have begun last year, but was postponed to March this year, and then to May. Since just one week is left in May, this deadline is going to be overshot too.

Out of the 1,500 acres of its own land Huda is planning to sell, 1,000 acres lie in Jawaharnagar in Shamirpet mandal and 500 acres in Kokapet in Rajendranagar mandal. The Rangareddy administration has already written a letter to the commissioner of land administration to hand over the land to Huda.

Huda is planning to strike a good deal for the Jawaharnagar land. It would either be sold or leased out.

The decision will be made in a day or two. The land allotted by the government in Rajendranagar and Shamshabad areas would be preserved till the inauguration of the international airport so that funds generated from them could be used for phase-II of the ORR, an official said.

ORR project gets going at last

Work on the first phase set to commence from June


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks to competitive bidding, estimated cost comes down by 13 per cent
High-level panel headed by Chief Secretary to finalise developer
Focus on pockets to be allotted to international bidders
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


HYDERABAD: Things are moving in the right track at last for the prestigious Outer Ring Road (ORR) project and the work on the first phase is set to start from June.

When the financial bids for the first phase were opened on Tuesday, it certainly gladdened the hearts of HUDA authorities as the competitive bidding by international companies brought down the estimated cost by 13 per cent.

HUDA funding


While HUDA estimated the first phase cost at Rs. 590 crores, it was bid for Rs. 513 crores and HUDA would fund the project through bank loan. A high-level committee headed by Chief Secretary would meet on May 29 to finalise the developer and in the mean time, technical committee would evaluate the proposals submitted by the bidders, according to ORR Project Director Piyush Kumar.

With the alignment for ORR second phase which had to be shifted in certain stretches notified once and for all, the authorities are now focussing on pockets of work to be assigned to international bidders. The work allotment would commence first in three pockets of 10 km to 12 km each out of ten pockets from Narsingi to Kollur, Kollur to Patancheru and Shamshabad to Srisailam Road and would be completed by September . Work assignment in remaining pockets of second phase of ORR would be completed by December, he said.

Apart from bank loan, HUDA would adopt different financial assistance models apart from Central Government aid to fund the entire project, he said

Yeah I agree.

When u talk abt Hyderabad's population (officially it's around 5million) we shld consider the fact tht the official population doesn't consider the whole of the twin cities . I believe they leave out much of the main parts and also some of the dense parts of the regions as they either fall into secunderabad or other surrounding districts. I think i'm pretty sure on this.....

My estimate is tht it is already btween 7 and 8 million as of now!

Say wht guys?

Guys, what i said is correct. Please click on the below link, it is a govt of AP website and in that it is clearly posted that Hyderabad population according to 2001 sensus is 38odd lakhs. So in these 5 years it could have increased another 2 lakhs and not more than that. But if at all Greater Hyderabad (which is in high court) becomes a reality then it could reach 5.5million or 6million to the most not more than that.

http://www.aponline.gov.in/Quick%20l...hyderabad.html

I dont say that Metro is not necessary for Hyderabad, it is needed. But for the time being not a criteria. Just look at the pathetic condition of MRTS in Hyderabad, SCRly and AP govt have invested a sum of 40cores and they were unable get even half of that amount. Now, the state govt has withdrawn from the expansion of that project due to huge losses incurred. So, before going ga ga for a METRO, better improve MRTS and check the demand, patronage and then go ahead.

Hyderabad metro

I seriously doubt the financial viability of such a project for a city like HYDERABAD.

Attention Everyone.................This thread is titled "Hyderabad 160 km OUTER RING ROAD Renderings". Please post ORR updates, news, renderings. Lets not turn this thread into Hyderabad metro thread.

As of now, I'm starting "Hyderabad Discussions" thread in CHAIBAR. Please debate whether Hyd needs a metro or not in this CHAIBAR thread. It seems like there are quite a few of forumers who are interested in debating.

ORR - finally happening

Hyderabad, May 27: A Russian firm, Corporation Transstroy Open Joint Stock Company, and Continental Engineering Corporation from Taiwan have emerged as the lowest bidders for the two packages to build the 28-km Phase-I of the Outer Ring Road.

The eight-lane access-controlled road will connect Gachibowli with the international airport at Shamshabad. It is expected to be completed in 18 months. The Russian company had made the lowest quotations for both the packages but the government has stipulated that one company cannot get both the packages. The Russians opted to keep the first package, leaving the second one for the Taiwanese company.

Transstroy quoted Rs 219 crore for the 11-km stretch between Gachibowli and Andhra Pradesh Police Academy (APPA), 19 per cent less than the estimated cost. Taiwan’s CEC was the second lowest bidder to build the road between Andhra Pradesh Police Academy and the Shamshabad international airport, quoting Rs 295 crore which is 13 per cent less than the estimated cost.

Going by the bids, the government will save Rs 76 crore of the estimated Rs 590 crore cost of the project. The government is financing the road with loans from a consortium of banks. Transstroy is the legal successor of the erstwhile USSR government’s ministry of transport corporation. It is involved in mining, roads, oil exploration and energy. The Taiwanese firm has executed several projects including the Taiwan High Speed Rail, MRT system and a part of the national highway in Vietnam.

Official sources told this correspondent that a high-level committee headed by chief secretary T.K. Dewan will meet on Friday next will formalise the decision of awarding the contract to the two firms. Officials involved in the Outer Ring Road project were upbeat and said the work could be grounded in June.

“They will be asked to start the work immediately,” a senior official said. He said work relating to three packages for the second phase would be grounded in September. The 35-km stretch is estimated to cost Rs 750 crore, sources said. The three packages are the 23-km Narsingi-Kollur and Kollur-Pattancheru sections, and the 12-km stretech from Shamshabad to Srisailam highway where the Fab City is proposed.

These constructors will be paid on annuity basis. “The companies will raise funds on their own and the government repay with annual instalments,” a senior official of the Hyderabad Urban Development Authority said explaining the annuity system. “The government would be relieved of the burden of mobilising funds.” Sources said the officials had proposed to the government to raise bonds from the financial market to fund the remaining phases of the ORR.

The government has already formed the Growth Corridor Company Limited in which Hyderabad Urban Development Authority has 60 per cent stake and the Infrastructure Corporation of Andhra Pradesh, 40 per cent. Indications are that GCCL will be allowed to float bonds on its name.

This project will probably change the face of Hyderabad for good if it is built as per what the renderings show. A metro line along with the ORR will certainly make the satellite townships a reality.

What I think the GoAP should do is to develop theme based industrial clusters sandwiched between the residential townships along the ORR with metro having stations at every place.


Here is what I have in mind (call it a wish list or a pipe dream):

1. New capital city (admin, beaurocratic, diplomatic etc. with expansive avenues, boulavads, a huge square for rallies, parades, public demonstrations etc.)

2. New Sports city (sports arenas, stadiums, dev authorities etc)

3. New Medical city (famous hospitals, research centres, medical tourism etc.)

4. New Bio-tech city (biotech research centres, stem cell research, biotech parks)

5. A Pharma city (a huge pharma park with all the facilities for affluent processing,

infrastructure for setting up production and research faciilities)

6. New academic/education city (which should have all the major modern university campuses of state, national and international repute, think tanks, etc.)

7. An IT city (ofcourse on a much bigger scale say 20,000 acres)

8. A Financial district (which should house all the major banks and their head or regional head offices, financial service providers, govt regulatory bodies, insurnace houses, MNC banks, a state of the art electronic stock exchange, brokerage houses etc.etc.)

9. A Shopping/Entertainment city (a speciality shopping district which would be the place to go for any visitor with all thing avaialble under the sun)

10. An Auto city (for all types automobile manufacturing, design, testing etc. It should have a moto-gp, f1, f3 or f5 whatever racetrack, a huge auto-expo facility etc.)

11. An SME city (to house/provide facilities for small and medium enterpises with storage/logistical facilities, common infrastructure etc. and this is the place for manufacturing/processing anything an SME can do including garments, diamonds, electronics, speciality chemicals, fabrication units.....and so on)

12. A hitech manufacturing city (semicondcutor, nano, optics, defence, etc..)



This list can be expanded and improved further. What do you think?

IT city, entertainment city, and others like that should be constructed as per the demand. ofcourse there's demand for IT parks and at least 4 more IT parks by various companies such as Rahejas, DLF, Induja, etc are in the pipeline and will come up in the next 1-2 years.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
ORR Phase I: Gacchibowli to Shamshabad 22km is divided into 2 packages
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
ORR Phase I package 1: Transstroy Rs 219 crore 11-km Gachibowli - APPA.

ORR Phase I package 2: Taiwan’s CEC Rs 295 crore APPA - Shamshabad.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
To be decided by Sptember 2006:
ORR Phase II pack 1: 23-km Narsingi-Kollur section
ORR Phase II pack 2: ------ Kollur-Pattancheru section
ORR Phase II pack 3: 12-km Shamshabad to Srisailam highway.


Modus operandi:
These constructors will be paid on annuity basis.
“The companies will raise funds on their own and the government repay with annual instalments,”


so the GoAP/HUDA could worry less about raising funds and concentrate on other projects.
and these companies could run their business in India on a long term basis, building more roads
and HUDA could manage and collect tolls and pay annuities to builders
and this whole formula could be followed for the rest of the ORR phases
Wow, what a plan!.

Great Job HUDA. Great job team YSR.
KUDOS to YSR to allow HUDA do their job well.
A very innovative way of doing things.

yes. hopefully, things may even get better.
both these firms have the necessary expertise and good track record.
also, they are both from the worlds most hard working nations.
they would certainly deliver a bang for the buck.
and they live next door to India (almost).
