Sadhalli Junction Underpass to Eliminate Last Red Light to Bengaluru Airport
The National Highways Authority of India is building a big tunnel under Sadahalli junction in Bengaluru.
This tunnel will be 750 meters long and have six lanes.
Once it's done, cars going to the airport won't have to stop at any traffic lights.
This will make the trip to the airport much smoother and faster.
The tunnel is being built to help people get to the airport without any delays.
The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is constructing a 750-metre-long, six-lane underpass at Sadahalli junction.
The underpass aims to eliminate the last signal on the main carriageway of KIA Road, providing uninterrupted movement for airport-bound traffic.
Once completed, the underpass will mark the end of stop-and-go driving on one of Bengaluru's most critical corridors.
The project is expected to significantly improve traffic flow and reduce travel time to the airport.
The exact timeline for the completion of the underpass has not been specified.
