Hebbal Flyover Lane Construction: Traffic Advisory For KR Puram, Bellary Road And Doddaballapura Commuters

The Bengaluru traffic police have advised travelers heading to the International Airport to depart at least two hours before their flight due to heavy traffic congestion caused by ongoing Hebbal flyover and Metro rail construction, as reported by The Indian Express.

"Infrastructure work on the Hebbal flyover and Bengaluru Metro rail construction is causing slow traffic flow during peak hours. Vehicles traveling to the airport may face delays. Therefore, it is recommended that vehicles heading to the airport leave at least two hours ahead of their scheduled flight," stated the traffic police department on Thursday, as quoted by the publication.

The current infrastructure improvements include expanding the flyover approach from K R Puram to Hebbal and near the Hebbal police station, along with ongoing Metro rail construction from Kempapura Cross to Hebbal Junction, Kodigehalli Junction, and Byatarayanapura Junction.

To manage traffic, the police have suggested several alternate routes:

For travelers heading to the airport from KR Puram:

• Turn right onto Outer Ring Road and then take Hennur Cross-Bagalur Road to the airport.
• Turn right at Nagawara Junction onto Horwarthula Road, then right onto Thanisandra-Hegadenagar Main Road, and follow Belli Bridge-Rewa Junction to Bagalur Road for the airport.

For those coming into the city from KR Puram:

• Use the Angarajapuram flyover from IOC-Mukunda Theater Road.
• Access the city via Nagawara and Tannery Roads.

For heavy and medium goods vehicles coming into the city from Bengaluru-Bellary Road:

• Turn left at Rani Cross, Devanahalli, to Hoskote and Kolar.
• Alternatively, turn left at Doddaballapura Cross, Devanahalli, to Hoskote and Kolar.
• Vehicles can also turn left at Vidyanagar Cross and proceed via Razak Palya-Bagalore through Hennur-KR Puram.

For vehicles coming from Doddaballapura:

• Turn right near Rajanukunte and head towards Nelamangala.
• The traffic police recommend these routes to avoid delays and manage the heavy traffic around the construction zones.
