Following traffic snarls on the Bengaluru-Mysuru Express Highway in recent days following heavy rains, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Friday said the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) would audit the drainage system as well as the road for increasing carrying capacity of the road and smooth movement of vehicles.

The NHAI would complete an audit of the Bengaluru-Mysuru road for increasing its carrying capacity. During the road audit, NHAI would also audit the drainage system along the road to address issues related to waterlogging during monsoon. Mr. Bommai said works on the highway must speed up, but now problems with the storm-water drain system had surfaced.
