The Bengaluru Traffic Police have put on hold the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited’s (BMRCL) proposal to partially close Bannerghatta Road near the Lakkasandra underground station for a year to facilitate metro construction activities.
On Saturday, March 30, BMRCL announced that north-bound traffic on Bannerghatta Main Road, from the MICO signal to the Anepalya junction, will be closed for a year starting April 1 to facilitate the construction of the station’s south side entry structure.
However, the Bengaluru traffic police did not allow the closure of the road on Monday, April 1, as the official notification from the traffic police had not been issued. Adugodi Traffic police officials told The Hindu that despite BMRCL’s announcement of the road closure, it cannot proceed until an official notification is issued, particularly considering the proposed closure’s duration of one year.
