The BBMP has written to the state government seeking a grant of Rs 345 crore for building an elevated rotary (flyover) to access Bengaluru’s third railway terminal at Baiyappanahalli from four sides.
The lack of road access to the terminal had earned the wrath of the citizens as the railways spent a fortune to build a swanky and air-conditioned station without providing proper connectivity.
In a letter to the Urban Development department (UDD), BBMP Chief Commissioner Tushar Giri Nath has asked for a grant from either the Urban Development or Infrastructure Development department. The project, a first-of-its-kind in Bengaluru, will be taken up on design, build, operate (maintain) and transfer (DBOT) model.
