The Andhra Pradesh Capital Region Development Authority has initiated grama sabhas to consult residents on road infrastructure plans for Amaravati. These meetings aim to integrate village road networks with the broader capital city master plan.
Why it matters
Public consultation is a key component of urban development projects to ensure infrastructure meets the needs of local communities.
The Andhra Pradesh Capital Region Development Authority (APCRDA) on Monday (August 3, 2026) launched a series of grama sabhas (meetings) in capital villages to prepare village circulation and integration plans as part of the Amaravati Master Plan. The first meetings were held at Abbarajupalem and Rayapudi in the North-West Grid.
The consultations were organised to familiarise residents with the proposed village road circulation plan, integration plan and the road network envisaged under the Amaravati Master Plan while seeking suggestions from local communities before finalising the proposals.
APCRDA officials explained how the existing village roads would be integrated with the proposed road network in the Land Pooling Scheme (LPS) zones. They also outlined plans for strengthening infrastructure to meet future development needs and improve connectivity between villages and the capital city.
