Getting to Hyderabad By Road

Hyderabad is well connected to several important cities of India such as Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune, Warangal, Nagpur, and Vijaywada amongst other cities. The highway network linking Hyderabad to other places in India is also very good. Three National Highways - NH 7, NH 9 and NH 202 - pass through the city. The city will also be part of the North-South Corridor. Hyderabad is also located in the heart of the Telengana region and is hence well connected to cities and towns in this region.

The city also boasts of one of the best laid out internal road systems. There are several flyovers in city which has helped decongest traffic to an extent. Many important roads in Hyderabad are three-lane on each side. The inner ring road and the yet to be constructed outer ring road will ease some of the city's traffic problems, as now most of the heavy vehicles are directed through these roads to reach the national highways, bypassing the city.

However, as it is with most Indian cities, the city traffic is still chaotic due to the increase in vehicles and lack of lane discipline. Driving in Hyderabad is no longer a pleasure and has become a stressful experience for vehicle owners. Added to traffic snarls is the increase in number of road accidents, common among two-wheelers and auto rickshaws.
Alternative Transportation in Hyderabad

Hyderabad is linked to various parts within the city by a good MRT system (mass rapid transit system), which is a blessing for commuters who can now reach their destination fast and in comfort.

But if you want to get the feel of the city, you can try out the 3-seater and 7-seater autos. If you prefer comfortable rides, you can hire air-conditioned cabs which are just a phone call away and make getting around Hyderabad easy.
Bus Service

The Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC) is the main bus service in Hyderabad. It was established in 1932, with just 27 buses as part of the Nizam State Railways-Road Transport Division. However, today it has a fleet of nearly 19,000 buses and has the honour of being listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the largest state transport undertaking in the world. APSRTC connects various parts of the city and has a good frequency of buses, enabling passengers to commute between locations easily.
