HYDERABAD: Power transformers and dangling electric wires on city streets are not only dangerous to pedestrians, but also an eyesore. If the GHMC’s plans come to fruition, thousands of power transformers could soon be given an elegant makeover while also earning the civic body some extra ‘moolah’ in the form of advertising revenue.
The GHMC has decided to raise the height of at least 50,000 power transformers by seven to 15 feet to make pavements pedestrian friendly.
