BANGALORE: The Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) will address the chaos of one of the worst traffic bottlenecks in the city by constructing a four lane road from Kundanahalli to HAL Corporate office on the Airport Raod.

This comes as a relief to the office-goers to Whitefield and the Information Technology Park. The stretch has traffic for all 24 hours of the day, since it is the route used by vehicles plying to the BPOs, IT companies located near Whitefield.

“Anand Rao Circle has the highest count of vehicles and we have constructed a flyover there. Now we will make a better road to Whitefield from the existing airport,” BDA Commisioner M N Vidyashankar said.

The length of the road will be 5.82 kms and is a part of the Bangalore-Varthur road.

The road, which is in the jurisdiction of the Public Works Department (PWD), has been handed over to the BDA. The project will be taken up at a cost of Rs 5.9 Crores.

An overpass across Bangalore-Salem railway line at Marathahalli will form part of the stretch. The BDA has held discussions with the Railways and if they agree, the BDA will undertake the work. The work on the project is expected to finish within eight months of the commencement.
