After detailed inspection on April 2nd, authorities have confirmed that the ramps connecting HSR Layout to BTM Layout and Ragigudda are completely ready for public use. These ramps run beneath the metro line.

The delays on the projects were due to the installation of a 42-metre steel girder, but the work has now been completed.

Now the infrastructure is technically ready, and mere final inauguration is still pending. Authorities are now working with the office of Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar to finalise on the date for the opening ceremony. Desperation or Deception? The Low Blow in Assam’s Election Battle

Once operational, the traffic density between Jayadeva and HSR layout would drastically come down and the pollution will be significantly reduced.

For the traffic safety, authorities have imposed a strict speed limit of 40 kmph on the ramps, and the weight restriction allowing only vehicles up to 50 tonnes. The ramps connecting Ragiguda to Hosur Road, BTM Layout, and HSR Layout were partially opened in July 2024. Again: Why Chidambaram’s Opposition to Progress is No Surprise
