Bellandur-Ecospace Route Reopens: Bengaluru Traffic Police Offer Congestion Relief At Iblur Junction

The Bengaluru traffic police have devised a practical solution to alleviate the traffic congestion caused by the ongoing Metro construction at Iblur Junction, a crucial route connecting the southern, northern, and eastern parts of the city.

An unused road between Bellandur Junction and Ecospace will now feature a designated lane, providing commuters with an option to bypass the congestion at Iblur Junction. This alternative route will serve vehicles traveling from Sarjapur to Ecospace, those heading to Sarjapur via the bypass, and vehicles from HSR and Marathahalli to Ecospace.

Shiv Prakash Devaraju, Deputy Commissioner of Police, Traffic-South, stated, "Traffic has been under AI surveillance since September. A collaborative solution with BMRCL was designed, resulting in a significant reduction in congestion. The initiative is particularly focused on Bellandur and Iblur Junction, notorious for frequent accidents."

On Thursday, students, accompanied by traffic personnel, raised awareness within the HSR Layout Traffic police station limits about the newly established route. To assist commuters, the traffic police strategically placed signage along the route, facilitating an easier navigation for individuals, especially those commuting to tech parks.
