Etymology


The word ‘Gachi’ means lime mortar and ‘bowli’ comes from the word ‘baoli’ which means a well.[5] Thus the area ‘Gachibowli’ is named after the presence of a well plastered with limestone. The Asaf Jahi period 200 year old Gachibowli Stepwell, next to Jama Masjid-E-Dilawarsha Begum, was revived and inaugurated in November 2021.[6]


Gachibowli- ORR Junction


There are multi-level flyovers at the Outer Ring Road entrance at the Gachibowli Junction,[7] which are constructed as part of Strategic Road Development Program (SRDP). As per 2022 traffic study conducted by the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC), the peak hour traffic at Gachibowli junction stands at 9,806 PCU (Passenger Car Unit)/per hour. By 2036, the same junction is estimated to face a traffic of 17,711 PCU/hour.[8] The four-lane bi-directional flyover from Shilpa Layout to the Outer Ring Road near Gachibowli Junction is set to be inaugurated on November 2022.[9][10] This 823-metre-long, 16.60-metre-wide flyover has two twin steel girders. Some spans of this flyover are placed across the existing Gachibowli Crossroad Flyover. The construction of another six-lane bidirectional flyover in the direction of the Kondapur side towards ORR at the second level crossing, Gachibowli Junction is expected to complete by December 2023. This flyover will be 816 metres long and 24 metres wide.
