Bengaluru suburban rail project: Corridor 2 work to begin in days
Authorities are all set to start civil works on Corridor 2 (Baiyyapanahalli-Chikkabanavara) of the Bengaluru suburban rail project in days as they await clearance of trees standing in the way.
The Rail Infrastructure Development Company (Karnataka) Limited or KRIDE awarded the work on designing and constructing the corridor to L&T in August. The 25.57-km corridor comprises an 8.027 elevated viaduct and 17.551 km at grade line with 14 stations.
The Rs 859.97-crore work on the line has been divided into two packages: Baiyyapanahalli-Lottegollahalli and Lottegollahalli-Chikkabanavar. “Preparatory works are ongoing. The work will begin once the obstructions are removed,” said an official.
