The traffic in Hyderabad is getting miserable everyday. Last year, during the month of October it used to take me approximately 45 minutes to reach office from my home which is 25 KM away. Now it takes anything between 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes. Terrible, isn't it! The reason is not just increase in the number of vehicles on the road, but people driving without traffic sense and mutual respect for the others on the road.
There is a concept of free left lane at the signals in Hyderabad, this is not the case in Bangalore. The drivers in a hurry to reach the destination faster block the left lane and cause a severe congestion at the junctions. One such place is the junction at the Cyber Towers where people take a left turn as most of the companies are located on that way.
Recently, few companies started the initiative of "Free the left lane", where in employess of these companies help in freeing the left lane and reduce congestion. These people stand in the hot sun and ensure lane discipline. Thanks, folks! You are helping me reach the office early by atleast 20 minutes. I have noticed employees of SumTotal and CSC, many thanks to you!
