Bengaluru's MG Road to Be Dug Up After 40 Years
MG Road in Bengaluru is going to be dug up and fixed after 40 years.
The road is old and has leaks, which is causing problems for businesses.
The city government has a plan to spend ₹45 crore to make the road better.
First, a water board called BWSSB needs to finish their work.
After that, the road will be resurfaced to make it smoother and stronger.
This will help reduce traffic problems and make the road last longer.
MG Road in Bengaluru will be dug up and upgraded after 40 years due to deteriorated infrastructure.
The project is part of a ₹45 crore road upgrade plan by the Bengaluru Central City Corporation.
BWSSB must complete their work before the road resurfacing begins to minimize disruptions.
The 2.2-kilometre stretch of MG Road will be white-topped as part of the upgrade.
Businesses have repeatedly complained about leaks and contamination, necessitating the replacement.
