Bengaluru Plans 10 Flyovers To Ease Traffic Congestion

Bengaluru Smart Infrastructure Ltd (B-SMILE), a government-run agency, has begun forming internal teams to execute 10 flyover projects aimed at easing traffic congestion across the city, even as mobility experts continue to question their effectiveness.

In a series of office orders, Bengaluru Smart Infrastructure Ltd has assigned individual engineers to oversee each of the proposed projects. The engineers have been directed to study existing road conditions and suggest modifications to the detailed project reports.

The flyovers have been categorised into three groups based on length: up to 5 km, between 5 km and 10 km, and over 10 km. Projects exceeding 10 km are expected to be implemented under a public-private partnership model, with the government providing viability gap funding of up to 40 per cent of the total project cost.

Engineers have been asked to submit their assessments and recommendations by January 28. They have also been instructed to inform the respective city corporations about the activities proposed along the identified stretches to ensure coordination during execution.

The flyovers are planned along several major corridors, including Sirsi Circle–Nayandahalli, Yeshwanthpur–Halasuru, Anay Anand Bhavan on Kanakapura Road, Minerva Circle–Hudson Circle, Marenahalli Main Road, MEI Junction, Pipeline Road, Dodballapur Road and Old Madras Road, among others.

The projects form part of the city’s broader efforts to improve mobility and reduce congestion on key arterial routes, though their long-term impact on traffic flow remains under debate.
