Flyover construction begins on Ballari Road; 18-month closure planned for Airport Road

Construction has begun on an elevated flyover from the US Staff Quarters to Mekhri Circle on Ballari Road, a major Bengaluru road. The project, spanning 1.6 km, is planned for 18 months. Due to the construction, heavy vehicles and buses will be completely banned, allowing only small vehicles to use service roads. Commuters entering the city from Hebbal are advised to use alternative routes via Goragunte Junction or Nagawara.
