Nagarjuna Construction Company (NCC) has won the contract to build two flyovers and a railway underbridge in the Yelahanka assembly constituency at a cost of Rs 260 crore.
The first flyover, 1.8 kilometres long, will come up on Doddaballapura Road and link four busy traffic intersections. The second flyover will be built in Yelahanka old town. The railway underbridge will link Doddaballapur Road.
Yelahanka MLA S R Vishwanath laid the foundation stone for the projects on Saturday and hoped that they would be ready in a year and a half.
On why the flyovers and the bridge are being constructed, he said that traffic had grown exponentially in and around Yelahanka as it was closer to the airport.
