M. Maheshwar Rao, Chief Commissioner of the Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA), inspected the Hennur–Bagalur Road white-topping work, J.C. Road white-topping, and the newly constructed Hoskerehalli flyover, late night on November 11.
Approximately 5 km of the Hennur–Bagalur Road within the East City Corporation limits is being white-topped. Of this, one km on one side and 600 metres on the other have been completed. Mr. Rao has set a 25-day deadline to complete another 1.2 km stretch.
Traffic will be restricted on a 1.2-km portion from Poorna Prajna School to Gubbi Cross, allowing two-way movement on the remaining half. Similar phased restrictions of 1–1.5 km segments will be implemented, as approved by the traffic police.
To prevent congestion during the work, the Chief Commissioner directed the Deputy Commissioner of Police (North, Traffic) to deploy Home Guards to ensure that no vehicle is parked along the work zones, and that traffic flow is managed efficiently.
