BENGALURU: Work at an underpass below the tracks of the Jnanabharathi Railway Station that would facilitate easy access to the Mysuru Road from Jnanabharthi BDA Layout, stopped seven months ago, causing inconvenience to the residents of the area.
The demands for compensation made by civic utility agencies–Bangalore Electricity Company Limited (BESCOM) and the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB), have allegedly brought the work to a standstill. Work on the Rs 7 crore Road Under Bridge (RUB) commenced on August 21, 2020, with Railways executing the project for BBMP as the bridge fell within its land. The BBMP is bearing the entire cost of the project. However, work came to a complete halt in February this year.
