BENGALURU: The Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) said it would be building an 80-ft road passing via its Anjanapura Layout, where sites were allotted 19 years ago. The decision comes following repeated demands from site allottees and political pressure also played a role.A senior BDA official told TNIE, “The 6.8-km road will be built at a cost of Rs 23 crore. It will be a four-lane extending from Kanakapura Road to Gottigere via Anjanapura Layout. Tenders will be floated within a month.”
Explaining the delay, the official said, “We had decided to build it in August 2020. But BDA was in poor shape financially. Our position has improved now after sale of many sites. Now, we have the resources to ready the road which will be of the standards of National Highways.”
