    The document discusses the lack of footpaths in Hyderabad for pedestrians. Around 95% of footpaths in the city have been encroached, forcing pedestrians to walk in the road and endangering their safety. The aim is to solve this problem by providing elevated walkways using the existing structure of the Hyderabad metro rail to serve as pathways over short stretches and provide last-mile connectivity, with an initial scope focused on the dense, highly trafficked areas around Sultan Bazar streets.

    Promoting Paths.

    -Pre-thesis A.Akshay

    -Synopsis

    Introduction : In this ever growing city of hyderabad the vehicular traffic is constantly increasing
    due to the density and the vehicles are taken care of by extending roads and providing flyovers,
    But the pedestrian is not even considered, and all the footpaths are encroached or being used for
    the road extensions and in worse case they are not even provided. Due to the apathy of the civic
    authorities, about 90 per cent of the
    city’s footpaths have been encroached
    upon by commercial establishments,
    vendors, government departments, and
    others. Civic activists and pedestrian
    safety organisations say Hyderabad can
    never become a global destination if it
    ignores 75 per cent of its people who
    are pedestrians.Pedestrian crossings
    and footpaths have been orphaned and
    nobody wants to own responsibility for
    them. There is not a walkable footpath
    in the city. Around 95 km of footpath in
    the city have been encroached, forcing
    pedestrians to walk on the road.
    Aim : The aim is to solve the problems
    faced by the pedestrians due to the lack of footpaths in Hyderabad.
    Objective : The objective is to provide elevated pathways using the existing structure of hyderabad
    metro rail,That also serves the short stretches which provides the last mile connectivity.
    Scope : The scope of work refers to the areas which are densely packed and suffering from heavy
    traffic, which have metro line passing through them. Scope of work is now restricted to sultan
    bazar streets.
