Mehdipatnam Skywalk — Five Years and Still Incomplete

A 390-metre pedestrian skywalk with 13 elevators and five entry/exit points meant to serve roughly 50,000 daily pedestrians has remained under construction for over five years, with an HMDA officer's June 2024 promise of "completion by the end of the month" still unmet as of April 2026. Citizens have separately criticised its design for low clearance forcing pedestrians to crouch, poorly placed pillars, and traffic-jam-inducing barrier blocks near the busy junction.

GHMC Public Toilets — Crores Spent on Toilets That "Don't Exist"

GHMC has spent crores maintaining public toilets that turned out to be non-functional or non-existent — of a claimed 2,260 to 5,299 toilet seats, only around 400 were actually functional. In 2021 GHMC installed 2,260 temporary toilets that were reportedly "not opened for public use and were used for erecting banners," with many lacking water and sewerage connections.

Tellapur Underpass — Chronic Flooding

The Tellapur underpass becomes severely waterlogged after every heavy rainfall due to the absence of an effective drainage system with no proper outlet for rainwater, causing traffic standstills lasting hours. Vehicles become stranded and the State Disaster Response Force has had to be deployed to pump water and manage congestion.
