Hyderabad’s new moniker- The City of Speed Breakers
Given that the city has over 4.5 lakh lamp posts and electricity poles, residents are concerned that there could be a speed breaker for every two poles in the future. This may turn into a traffic hazard, benefiting automobile spare parts manufacturers due to increased wear and tear on vehicles. A businessman with an establishment in Hitec City, who commutes daily from ECIL, crosses nearly 62 speed breakers and 18 traffic signals.
