Heads Up, Bengaluru! Hebbal Flyover Construction to Impact KR Puram Access | Details Inside

Bengaluru: The Bengaluru traffic police has issued traffic advisory in North Bengaluru at the Hebbal flyover from April 17 in view of construction of two new lanes for the flyover by the Bengaluru Development Authority (BDA). 

Bengaluru police commissioner B Dayananda announced on Tuesday that the BDA has initiated road infrastructure works to add two new additional tracks to the Hebbal flyover.

Due to this, two spans of the existing K R Puram ramp need to be dismantled at the junction where the ramp joins the main track, he added. 
The police commissioner said that commencing Wednesday, the K R Puram up ramp of the Hebbal flyover will be closed to all vehicular traffic except for two-wheelers.
