Bengaluru Nidaghatta Section of NH-275 to cut travel time from 3 hrs to 90 mins: Nitin Gadkari

New Delhi: The six-laning of Bengaluru Nidaghatta Section of NH-275 is expected to cut down the present travel time of 3 hours to 90 minutes and reduce traffic congestion, Union Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari said Sunday.

In a series of tweets, Gadkari said that the road is a crucial stretch to tourism & economy as it passes through the towns of Bidadi, Channapatana, and Ramanagara, having the largest market for silk cocoons in Asia and provides access to the country’s only vulture sanctuary and will be connecting Srirangapatna, Mysore, Ooty, Kerala and Coorg, he added.

The Bengaluru to Nidaghatta section is the part of NH-275 that starts near the Panchamukhi Temple junction in Bengaluru's south zone and ends before Nidagatta.

He added that the six bypasses will  ensure the health, environment, and road safety of the towns of Bidadi, Ramnagara, Channarayapatna, Maddur, Mandya, and Srirangapatna for an aggregate length of 51.5km.

Special care has been taken on the project with road safety enhancements like eliminating the at-grade Junctions and providing Vehicular Underpasses/ Overpasses to nullify the accidents/conflicts.

He said delivering on the promise of 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas', MoRTH is working round the clock to complete many such dynamic projects in all the corners of the country and bring prosperity to the people.
