Ballari Road to narrow to four lanes for elevated corridor project between Hebbal and Mehkri Circle

Work on the proposed elevated corridor between Hebbal and Mehkri Circle will narrow the existing six-lane Ballari Road to four lanes near the University of Agricultural Sciences (UAS) in the initial phase. Traffic police expect the impact to remain manageable for the next three to four months, but warn that congestion will worsen as construction progresses towards Sanjay Nagar Cross and Mehkri Circle. The project, which involves dismantling existing underpasses near the CBI office and Sanjay Nagar, is expected to begin after the ongoing festive period.
