Officials from the Hyderabad Disaster Response Assets Monitoring and Protection Agency (HYDRAA) have reported clearing 810 fallen trees since the start of July till August 21. Areas afflicted by heavy rain and areas prone to traffic were all cleared with quick response from HYDRAA officials.
Officials said HYDRAA teams swung into action immediately whenever trees
collapsed in the city.
In congested bylanes, where heavy vehicles could not access, staff reached on two-wheelers and cleared branches manually to restore traffic flow.
For massive trees, Disaster Response Force (DRF) vehicles were deployed. During Ganesh idol processions, HYDRAA also undertook the clearance of obstructing branches to ensure smooth passage.
