The BBMP has decided to take up widening work of Sankey Road, nine years after the move was vehemently opposed by residents and environmentalists.
Though several of its road-widening projects are in limbo, the civic body has shown interest in reviving the project and complete it at the earliest.
Mayor Gautham Kumar and officials from road infrastructure, BBMP, on Thursday held a meeting with Deputy Chief Minister C N Ashwath Narayan, who is also the MLA of Malleswaram, to discuss the widening of Sankey Road.
“The deputy chief minister has instructed officials to take up the work immediately,” the mayor said after the meeting.
