Bannerghatta Road ( ಬನ್ನೇರುಘಟ್ಟ ರಸ್ತೆ, commonly known as BG Road) is an Indian State Highway in Karnataka. It connects Bangalore with the towns of Bannerghatta, Jigani, and Anekal. It extends for 49 kilometres (30 mi).[1] It starts as a branch from Hosur Road near the Adugodi Christian Cemetery and ends at Anekal.
History
In 2011, the Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike announced that the road would be widened in several places while underpasses and flyovers would be built at major junctions.[2]
The Government of Karnataka cleared the second phase of Namma Metro, which proposes a third line from Gottigere to Nagavara via the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore (IIM-B). The project was designed to significantly reduce the traffic load on Bannerghatta Road.
Under the upgrade plans, the road was to be widened to 45 metres from 20–25 metres at an estimated cost of ₹137 crore (US$16 million).[3]
Main junctions
The main junctions and traffic hotspots are at Adugodi, Dairy Circle, Sagar Hospital, Gurappanapalya, Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiology, N. S. Palya, Bilekahalli, Arekere Gate, Hulimavu Gate, Gottigere, Bannerghatta Circle, Koppa Gate, and Jigani industrial area. The NICE BMIC peripheral ring road intersects with State Highway 87 south of Gottigere. For approximately five kilometers south of Jayadeva underpass, South Avenue, Bannerghatta Road was widened to four lanes by Mantri Developers in one of the city's first private-public partnerships. The Dairy Circle and the Jayadeva grade separators are on this road. Bannerghatta Road has intersections with major roads such as Hosur Road, Outer Ring Road, and NICE Road.
