Also you know there will be toilets to maintain the hygiene factor. And I heard some officials speak about wanting to maintain cleanliness of international standards by keeping a regular watch on the activities of the vendors and make sure that they don't litter.
I love how they have put very good though into this. An officer said that these retail outlets will be allowed so that it would help the working class people that work everyday and later go out of their way to purchase groceries and other such daily needs and with this they won't have to.
One great news here is that all the slots for pharmacies have been booked in all the 11 metro stations right from Nagole to Uppal. These stores are all located in the entry and exit points all of the station.
So here are the outlets that were determined as the ones that are necessary. Vegetable super markets, pharmacies, laundry facilities, dairy parlours, stationery shops, gift shops, food joints and coffee shops were the ones that have made the list.
True they have been pretty extensive on determining it. The team responsible to sort this out has sought feed back from the regular people on various social media outlets about different sectors to determine which retail shops to open here.
I heard about a senior offical that was in charge of this talk about it . He said that the retail outlets policy for them is to meet the daily requirements of the general population that travel by the metros on a regular basis.
As far as i heard a senior officer in the project said that the policy for retail outlets is to meet the day-to-day requirements of people. For that they have sought feedback from people on social media and identified sectors which people stated as their daily requirements.
Did you know that majority of the bookings had been done even before the station works commenced. This is because station space will be licensed out to vendors for day-to-day requirements of the people. Hope this helped you understanding the news better.
Hey, here is the info you are looking for; The station areas range from 2,000 to 3,000 sft and will be managed and maintained by L&T. Also there is one station at Jubilee Check Post will not have any retail space.
Yes, you heard correctly! Eighty per cent of the retail space at 63 metro stations has already been booked by Larsen and Turbo Hyderabad Metro Rail for the market price ranging from Rs 400 to Rs 900 per sq ft.
