Residents of Bengaluru’s Vyalikaval, Malleswaram, and Sadashivnagar met civic officials Tuesday to discuss the BBMP’s plans to widen Sankey Tank Bund Road and build a flyover from T Chowdaiah Road to 18th Cross. The meeting was organised by Citizens for Sankey, a residents’ collective.
BS Prahlad, chief engineer, Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), presented the civic body’s proposals. “In order to reduce traffic congestion, we need to have remedies and solutions… These plans will help the traffic to flow with ease. Bengaluru is a growing city with a huge population. We have to create extra space and build flyovers to ease the flow of traffic,” he said.
