Suranjandas road in entirety.From Old Madras road all the way up to Airport road.Its been 2 years no progress.
Ah that explains the asphalting work I noticed in Jayanagar yesterday.
I have experienced a few of these roads newly resurfaced. Makes huge difference in the flow of traffic. Hope they can do ITPL junction near SAP; so bumpy takes everyone ages to get thru.
Wondering why this has all taken so long to fix the roads in the first place?
I have noticed in recent times that BBMP and BDA have stopped the design of installing/erecting new street lights in between the double road though the roads are wider enough, which is widely followed method in every urban place in the country.
Instead BBMP is erecting each street light on left sides of the opposite roads.
The reason for disadvantage are mentioned below:
1.The lights reflection is weak because the lights are being covered by the surrounding trees and their branches.
2. Increase in cost of erecting two light poles on the both side of the road rather than One street pole in between the road on the median.
3. Erecting the pole in between provides more light reflection for vehicle commuters hence avoid accidents during night time.
4. Last but not the least, it adds to the beautification of the road and the method is of International Standard.
