Bengaluru is set to receive a massive infrastructure boost worth Rs 1,200 billion under new projects planned by the Karnataka government to enhance urban mobility and connectivity.

The initiative includes the expansion of the city’s metro network, construction of tunnel roads, elevated corridors, and 500 km of white-topping works to improve road durability. The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) and Bengaluru Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) will jointly execute the projects.

Key projects include tunnel roads between Hebbal and Mekhri Circle, 25 new signal-free corridors, and an advanced integrated traffic management system. The white-topping initiative aims to reduce potholes and extend road life in major traffic zones.

These projects align with Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s vision to make Bengaluru a global city by improving its transport, road safety, and sustainability standards.
