Gowlidoddi C&D Waste Transfer Station Opens to Support Western Cyberabad Construction Growth

A new Construction and Demolition (C&D) waste transfer station has been inaugurated at Gowlidoddi in the Serilingampally Zone of the Cyberabad Municipal Corporation (CMC), aimed at improving the collection, transportation and recycling of construction debris from some of the city’s fastest-growing areas. 

The facility, established by Re-Sustainability, was inaugurated by Jayesh Ranjan, Special Chief Secretary, Government of Telangana, in the presence of CMC Commissioner G. Srijana, Additional Commissioner (Health and Sanitation), Serilingampally Zonal Commissioner and officials from various departments. 

Serving as a nearby transfer and aggregation point, the Gowlidoddi station will handle C&D waste generated in Narsingi, Nallagandla, Gachibowli and Madhapur. CMC already operates a C&D waste processing facility at Jeedimetla. The new facility is expected to reduce transportation distances, improve vehicle utilisation and lower transportation costs for waste collection. 

With construction activity continuing across western Cyberabad, large volumes of debris are being generated from residential, commercial and infrastructure projects. The facility is intended to prevent C&D waste from being dumped on roads, open spaces, drains and other public areas. 

Implementation of G.O.Rt.No.626 will also be supported through the station, promoting the scientific management, recycling and reuse of C&D waste. The order provides for the use of recycled C&D material in eligible government works, disposal certification for applicable projects, and authorised collection and transportation of construction debris. 

The initiative also focuses on treating construction debris as a resource rather than simply waste. Agencies undertaking CC road and other civil works have been advised to collect the C&D waste generated during projects and hand it over to authorised processing agencies. 

Jayesh Ranjan stressed that the cost of C&D waste collection, transportation and processing should be included in project estimates as per government procedures, ensuring that waste management is accounted for from generation through recycling.

The Gowlidoddi facility is expected to strengthen CMC’s C&D waste management network across western Cyberabad by curbing illegal dumping and promoting the reuse of processed construction material. The authorised service provider will also offer doorstep collection and processing of C&D waste at prescribed user charges.
