BIAL Connectivity Updates Jan 2008
Written By tsubba - 8 January, 2008
This month's connectivity updates begin with statements from the
traffic police about their plans for the Bellary road including,
banning U-turns & right turns on the road, and pictures and a trip report to devanahalli
on the alternative routes to bellary road by maritimer of SSC.
Traffic
Meanwhile, Additional Commissioner of Police (Traffic) K.C. Ramamurthy said plans had been drawn up to ensure uninterrupted flow of traffic from the High Grounds Police Station junction to the airport via Hebbal flyover on Bellary Road, which is also a National Highway.
There would be no provision for right turns or U-turns right through this stretch. The Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike would construct underpasses at certain junctions, as suggested by the traffic police, to enable motorists take such turns.
Series of Underpasses
“Until the underpasses are constructed, we will put necessary signage and regulate the traffic,” he said.
The Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike, the Department of Public Works and the National Highways Authority of India had already started the work on barricading the entire stretch of road on both the sides, Mr. Ramamurthy said.
“We are working on installing traffic signboards and hoardings on the entire stretch of the road connecting the airport from the city,” he added.
