Heading to Bengaluru's Hebbal flyover on a Monday morning? Don't!

The Hebbal flyover in Bengaluru, which connects the airport with the rest of the city, is one of the most congested points.

The Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) resumed work on constructing additional lanes on the flyover from Esteem Mall to Baptist Hospital a little over a year ago. The congestion on the road has progressively worsened, and even localities in and around Hebbal flyover have been impacted. After dismantling two lanes in April, meant for vehicles coming from K.R. Puram to get on the flyover, traffic movement has become even more difficult. The vehicle load from the dismantled ramp now falls on the service road and the service loop.

The Hindu team commuted from Esteem Mall to Hebbal Police Station on a two-wheeler to assess the time it takes to cross the flyover between 11.10 a.m. and 11.40 a.m. It took around 13 minutes to commute a mere 900 metres and climb the ramp of the flyover. The time taken to reach Hebbal Police Station, covering a total distance of four kilometres, was 27 minutes.
