Greater Bengaluru Authority (GBA) Chief Commissioner M Maheshwar Rao has directed the Bengaluru Development Authority (BDA) to complete the construction of the new traffic loop at Hebbal within 15 days and open it for public use. 

During an inspection of North Corporation limits, Chief Commissioner Rao noted that the BDA had finished the flyover loop connecting K.R. Puram and already opened it to commuters. The ongoing loop linking this structure to the existing Hebbal flyover has its first girder installed, with concrete work in progress. Officials have been instructed to install the remaining two girders and complete all pending works urgently. He also directed repairs of damaged footpaths along Hebbal Lake to maintain pedestrian safety and ordered the milling and asphalting of the remaining Hebbal flyover stretch. 

Roadworks at RMV 2nd Stage, Basaveshwara Layout, and Nagawara junction were reviewed, including BWSSB’s pending pipeline work. BDA has proposed a 1.4-km flyover to allow Outer Ring Road traffic to merge onto Ballari Road without entering Hebbal junction, with inter-departmental discussions ongoing for timely implementation.
