The Bengaluru Traffic Police (BTP) have found several loopholes in the construction of skywalks in the city.
Additional commissioner of police (Traffic) P Harishekharan, in a report to Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), has said that the BBMP has built skywalks where they are not necessary.
The report read, “It is found that skywalks were built at locations which were not identified by BTP but at places where they would cause huge traffic congestion in the coming days. Thus, BTP’s suggestions must be sought to build skywalks at proper locations,” the letter read. “It is found that BBMP officials are pressured by various quarters to shift the locations from those identified,” the report added.
