 Future Growth Trend And
Master Plan Approach:
Warangal Urban Spread would be a compact
urban agglomeration, with the Hyderabad
National Highway as central spine and remaining
areas of Kakatiya Development Area would
continue to exhibit rural character and
predominantly have agriculture-based
activities.
 Warangal agglomeration and the KUDA Area
are in proximity of Hyderabad
Metropolitan Region, and thus the
impact would continue to influence the
developments and growth direction of KUDA
Area.

In the regional context, Warangal and KUDA

Area can be termed and developed as a
counter-magnet to Hyderabad
Metropolitan Region given the proximity
and the strong transportation linkages
between the two.
 Hence, instead of proposing a rigid and mono-
characteristic land use plan, and plot specific /site
specific land use and zoning, a broad range and
spectrum of development uses and
activities are proposed in not only in the urban
spread but also in the Agriculture Zone , in a scaled
down manner.

This Master Plan proposes a strong and definite

structure by way of a grid type circulation
network which would be to not only ensure
hierarchy of development activities to ensure - smooth
and efficient movement and serve the other
infrastructure network for water supply, drainage,
sewerage, electricity and communication Network.

The first order development proposals focus

 Proposed Structure and
Circulation network
Keeping in view the Circulation pattern of the
Master Plan of 1971, the existing road pattern,
the trend of developments and the propensity
for future growth and direction of growth, the
Circulation pattern in this Master Plan 2031 is
suggested, basically in grid pattern format
that can be extended further in the
Kakatiya Development area in future.
 The structure of Warangal urban spread
has become radial - concentric with
Hanamkonda as the nucleus of
development and the following
highways and main roads radiating out,
viz.

Warangal Karimnagar State Highway;

Warangal-Hasanparthi Main road;
National Highway to Mulugu; Warangal-
Narsampet Highway;Warangal-
Khammam Highway; and Warangal-
Zaffergadh Main Road respectively.
 This is contained through the Master Plan Northern
Ring Road & eastern Ring road.
Keeping the above structure in view, the
Circulation pattern is integrated and
extended towards the south and west of
Warangal in this Master Plan 2031.
The proposed Circulation network consists of a well-
defined grid of Primary Roads,
Secondary Roads arterial roads, and
Ring roads/ Bypass roads.
The Primary Circulation network comprises of all
existing highways, the proposed ring roads, loop
roads, grid roads defining the various sectors and
other major roads. These are 30 meters and above in
width. These form the basis for the future mass
 The secondary circulation network comprises of
link roads and new roads linking the
Primary roads. The Right-of- way of these
Secondary roads ranges from 30 meters to 18 meters.

The existing village roads especially in the rest of the

KUDA Area would continue to be serving as the network
between the villages, the Mandal Headquarters and
Warangal as well as the villages.

These are forming part of the secondary network and

are minimum 18 meters in width. The sub-arterial and
feeder road network form an important component of
circulation within the localities and colonies.
 Mass Rapid Transit System for
Warangal
This Master Plan advocates the development and
operation of suitable Mass Rapid Transit
System (MRTS) for Warangal.

All primary roads of the Master Plan would be

the mass transit corridors. Initially, a Bus Rapid
Transit System (with exclusive bus lanes) may be
planned and designed with APSRTC being
responsible for the design, operations and
maintenance.

In the second phase, the mass transit system

should switch over to a combination of BRTS
and Light Rail Transit System (LRTS)
 THE MASTER PLAN

This Master Plan advocates the

development of an exclusive and
dedicated Mass Transit System either
adjoining to the existing BG Railway line
through the South Central railway or
alternatively, between Hyderabad and
Warangal along the National Highway No
202 under the provisions of the Andhra
Pradesh Tramway Act,2008.
 Development of a Regional Rail
Freight and Logistics hub at
Hasanparthy:
A freight container and logistics hub at

Hasanparthy has been proposed over an extent of

about 300 acres by the active participation of the
South Central Railway, the Container Corporation of
India and the private land owners under PPP mode.
This would be a major economic base for Warangal
since this has regional impact.

The other traffic and transport proposals would

flow out of the above basic circulation network and
structure. In this Plan specific locations for bus
terminals or truck terminals & logistics
hubs have been proposed in the Government lands

 Need for development of basic
industries for Warangal:
1. Excepting for the Railway Diesel Loco Shed at Kazipet,
there are no basic industries in Warangal.
2. Being the third largest agglomeration in the State,
certain basic industry activities, which are anchor
industries, are required for Warangal to increase the
industrial base.
3. This would give rise to other support and ancillary
including tertiary sector activities besides generating
large scale employment opportunities.
4. To encourage these, enabling have been
incorporated in the development regulations for
facilitating these in the Kakatiya Development Area.
 Generation of Public Open
Spaces, amenities and utilities:
1) As the urban agglomeration increases the demand for
public open spaces , amenities and public utility areas
become crucial for ensuring the quality of life.

2) Since these are demand driven, no specific sites or

plots, unlike in the past plans, have been indicated.

3) Both the Warangal Municipal Corporation and KUDA

will generate these areas by way of development of
Government lands and through land assemblage
permissions.

4) Land Pooling Schemes will be encouraged in a big way,

with a development-frienfly procedure through
licensed developers, so that sizeable chunks of plots
 Utilization of Government lands
All vacant Government lands should be placed at
the disposal of the MP Steering Committee of the
UDA and the first and basic responsibility of the
UDA/Govt. shall be to facilitate organized public
open spaces and public utilities sites. Then only
the lands for other Master Plan functions should
be utilized.
In the absence of the above, earmarking sites
specifically for open spaces and public utilities in
private lands becomes a futile exercise. Hence no
specific areas excepting the heritage and open
spaces zones that are environmentally critical for
their protection and preservation , have been
 Proposed Development
Promotion Regulations
The land development in the Kakatiya Development Area
in this Master Plan 2031 is broadly categorized as
follows:

General Development Promotion Zone (GDPZ)

Multiple Use Zone (MUZ)
Public & Semi-Public Use Zone (PSPUZ)
Heritage and Open Space Zone (HOSZ)
Agriculture Zone (AZ)
The land use and zoning of activities are
not site specific or plot specific. These
are area-wise, so as to give a certain
 City Central Open Space and
Heritage Area
The natural assets : major hillocks / hill ranges, large water bodies
and areas of outstanding natural beauty are proposed as Heritage
and Public Open Space Zone (HPOZ), to preserve these for
generations to come.

The areas around the major water bodies and hillocks of

Padmakshigutta, Balasamudram, Bhadri Tank, and the Warangal Fort
area and certain areas of outstanding natural beauty within the KUDA
Area are designated under this zone.

Only recreational, parks gardens, playgrounds, exhibition grounds,

melas, jatras, Theme Parks, tourism related developments,
archaeological related activities are permissible.

A City level Civic Plaza is proposed in 10 acres of area within the

Central Heritage Zone (Bhadri tank and its environs) of Warangal city
limits wherein city level civic centre activities like town

1) The preparation of Zonal development Plans (ZDPs) for these Planning

Zones are required to be taken up by KUDA at the earliest, keeping this
overall Master Plan structure in view.

2) The ZDPs would essentially be area development plans with emphasis

on action-oriented implementation strategies and are basically meant
to be action plans, plans for development of the various areas and
implementation plans and not just detailing out specific land uses and
further road network.

3) This Zone, viz., Warangal City proper is the oldest settlement in the
KUDA area. The zone is admeasuring 19.60 sq km and consists of
Municipal wards 1,2,3,4,5,6,7, 19(P), 20 21,23, 24 and consists of some
of the most densest portions of Warangal.
