Bangalore: The BCC will take up from Thursday upgradation work on the 19 roads identified by the government and IT-BT industries. The quality of work will be monitored by a threemember panel set up by the high court.

Upgradation of the road and footpath between Indiranagar and Suranjandas Road will start from Thursday. The battered mosaic footpaths will be relaid between Brigade Road junction and Trinity junction, and from Anil Kumble Circle to Brigade Road junction.

Meanwhile, the Karnataka Land Army Corporation has completed estimates of the work. Work will be divided into two components — roads and pavements. Accordingly, it has been suggested that 40 mm thickness of bituminous concrete layer be laid on the existing surface to strengthen it along with profile correction of the road, KLAC joint director S V Venkatesh Murthy said.
