Ejipura Flyover Completion Delayed: June 2026 Target
The Ejipura flyover in Bengaluru, India, is taking longer than expected.
The head of the city's government now thinks it will be done by June 2026, not March as previously hoped.
A big problem is buying the land needed to finish the project, especially near a hospital.
The first construction contract started in 2017 but had issues, causing delays.
Work restarted in late 2023, but there are still hurdles to overcome.
The goal is to get it done efficiently.
BBMP chief now estimates June 2026 as the completion target for the Ejipura flyover.
Land acquisition, particularly near St John's Hospital, continues to be a significant challenge.
Out of 762 precast segments needed, 437 have been installed.
The project's initial tender was awarded in 2017 but faced delays and contract termination.
The work restarted in November 2023 with an initial deadline of December 2025.
