Jayadeva Flyover turns to dust, makes way for Electronic City metro line

The Jayadeva flyover has been reduced to dust over the last five months to make way for the pillars of the double-decker flyover that will have a road carriageway along with the RV Road-Bommasandra metro line (Reach 5) of Phase 2.

The demolition work was taken up in three phases starting with the removal of the loop ramp connecting the Bannerghatta Main Road on January 20, when traffic diversions were put in place. In the next phase, when traffic was banned during the night, officials set up supporting decks for the bottom of the main flyover, removed crash barriers and began dismantling the main flyover piece by piece. Officials are set to remove the last few pillars and pile of iron bars in the next few days.
