As major civil works on the new metro line between Yelachenahalli and Anjanapura (Reach 4B) are in the final stage, the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) has taken up repair work of a stretch of Kanakapura road which has been damaged due to movement of heavy machinery over the last two years.
The 6.5-km stretch of the road between Yelachenahalli and Anjanapura Township near the NICE Road junction will soon get a facelift with drain and footpath development works at an estimated cost of Rs 13.5 crore.
The BMRCL has invited bids for the work and fixed a six-month deadline from the date of awarding the tender. The last date for submitting bids is December 26 and the officials hope to award the work by the end of January.
