Hyderabad: Besides being the seat of power, Amaravati will be a commercial hub for existing regional industries such as agri-business and logistics and new ones like IT-enabled Services (ITeS) and pharmaceuticals.
According to Singapore’s ministry of trade and industry, the master plan has designated a Central Business District.
In addition, it supports job creation in residential neighbourhoods so that people can work near their homes.
“The plan has laid out infrastructure for delivering reliable supplies of electricity and water while managing solid waste and sewerage, thereby ensuring a quality living environment.”
“The Amaravati region has good road and rail links to all parts of the state. The master plan will enhance the connectivity of the capital with a Bus Rapid Transit System that can eventually be upgraded to Mass Rapid Transit system.”
“Designed with an efficient road network, the Amaravati master plan will also promote the use of public transport and minimise the need for long commutes. Amaravati residents will also have non-motorised transport choices using an extensive network of walkways, cycle tracks and local waterways.
“This approach promotes active mobility within the city while protecting its environment through reductions in carbon emissions and other pollutants,” revealed the officials of the Singapore government.
