A part of the corridor II alignment of the Bengaluru Suburban Rail Project (BSRP) is likely to pass along a portion of the BBMP road, for a stretch of 5.8 km.
Interestingly, some of these roads were built on railway land several years ago. Recently, engineers of both government agencies undertook a joint inspection to finalise the future course of action.
The project, spread over 25 km, is the first of the four corridors taken up for construction. To go ahead with the work, the BSRP requires two metres of the service road to construct the retaining wall that bifurcates the track and the road.
