In a big victory for activists fighting for the safety of pedestrians crossing the Outer Ring Road, the BMRCL has agreed to their proposal to build a skywalk near Kalamandir in Marathahalli.
The skywalk is being built by the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) under public-private partnership.
However, the initial proposal was shot down by the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL), which was still finalising the details of the Outer Ring Road Metro corridor.
Clement Jayakumar of Doddanekundi Rising said the approval came after six months of back-to-back proposals and meetings to discuss the design details.
