The underpass at K.R. Circle is usually waterlogged during heavy rains and the traffic police block access to the underpass by placing barricades, like it did on Sunday evening.
This ad-hoc arrangement is in place just a stone’s throw away from the Vidhana Soudha, the administrative nerve centre of the State.
Bengaluru’s Chief Civic Commissioner Tushar Giri Nath, speaking to presspersons on Sunday, said that civic officials usually coordinate with the traffic police to not allow traffic in underpasses during heavy rains, and the civic body will investigate how the car went into the underpass despite it being barricaded.
