BMIC takes off

The looooooong delayed Bangalore Mysore Infrastructure Corridor, in simple terms , the 6-lane expressway, the first privately funded one in the country, between Bangalore and Mysore has finally taken off. Without any of the fanfare normally associated with such projects work has quietly begun at both ends. Although the Nandi Infrastructure Corridor Enterprise, the company that is executing the project attributes the low profile to the electoral code of conduct, its perhaps a good thing for the successful completion of the project that it does maintain a low profile and does not attempt to raise the hackles of too many people. When complete the distance will be reduced by 28 km and commute time will be only be 70 mins!
