Bengaluru's M.G. Road Resurfacing Starts March 5 Under 15-Day Deadline

Officials chose quick asphalting to limit disruption in the CBD.

Overview

  • The Bengaluru Central City Corporation will relay a 2.2 km stretch between Trinity Circle and Cubbon Park Police Station Circle.
  • Night-time milling began on March 4 with patchwork and overnight debris clearing to keep daytime traffic flowing.
  • Vehicles can use the milled surface for roughly eight to nine days, with full diversions to follow as asphalt laying proceeds.
  • A proposed white-top was rejected by traffic police, and BWSSB deferred replacing 40-year-old pipelines due to the accelerated schedule.
  • The project is funded under a Rs 25 crore package for seven Shantinagar roads, and a separate closure toward Bangalore University runs from 6 pm Thursday to noon Friday for railway bridge girder work with designated detours.
