Maharani’s College underpass two-way now
Bangalore, Nov 23, Deccan Herald News Service :

The Maharani’s College underpass will be made a two-way from Tuesday onwards.

According to the Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) officials, the underpass which had a one-way arrangement previously, extending from Maharani College towards Vidhana Soudha was delayed due to asphalting and road-widening works.

“ As we have completed the asphalting and road-widening works now, the underpass can be thrown open to the public as a two-way,” said a Palike official. BBMP officials said that the underpass should have been made two-way from Monday itself, but the Palike was waiting for the nod of the traffic police to ascertain the arrangement. The underpass was inaugurated on June 15, 2009 by Chief Minister B S Yedyurappa. The completion took nearly two months and cost nearly Rs 4.5 crore.
