The Jaraganahalli junction, popularly known as Sarakki junction and also often referred to as the “second Silk Board”, has been a traffic nightmare. With more apartments and housing societies developing around the Sarakki junction over the last decade, traffic has grown enormously at the Outer Ring Road (ORR) passing through the Sarakki junction.
And a flyover proposed here back in 2004 by the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) is still to become a reality. Though BBMP has announced several proposals to ease commuter travel at this junction, nothing has quite materialised. Last year, the baton was passed on to the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation (BMRCL), but that has pushed the deadline for making the flyover a reality even further.
