[5] In December 2022, Government of Telangana planned to monetise the outer ring road through the toll-operate-transfer (TOT) model and generate revenues and called for tenders.
Due to the anticipated growth in the region and the development of proposed satellite townships around the ring road and beyond, an eight-lane carriageway was planned with a design life of 20 years.
The cycle track is the improved version of the South Korean model, which provides more facilities like lighting, protection from rain, parking and other amenities such as food stalls.
