Bengaluru: Commuters in Bengaluru can finally look forward to smoother journeys as the Hosakerehalli Flyover, located on the bustling Outer Ring Road, is expected to open in November 2025, ending a five-year-long wait. The new flyover is set to significantly ease traffic congestion in one of the city’s busiest corridors.

Why This Flyover Matters

  • The Outer Ring Road is a critical artery connecting various IT hubs, residential areas, and commercial zones.
  • Over the years, commuters have faced lengthy traffic jams, especially during peak hours, due to the lack of adequate infrastructure at key junctions.
  • The Hosakerehalli Flyover aims to decongest traffic, reduce travel time, and improve overall road safety in the area.

Project Highlights

  • The flyover has been under construction for five years, with delays caused by land acquisition issues, technical challenges, and administrative approvals.
  • Upon completion, it will feature multiple lanes in each direction, modern traffic management systems, and pedestrian-friendly facilities at key points.
  • Authorities expect that it will accommodate thousands of vehicles daily, especially benefiting office-goers, bus commuters, and two-wheeler riders.

Impact on Bengaluru Traffic

  • With the Hosakerehalli Flyover operational, traffic on the Outer Ring Road is expected to flow more smoothly, particularly at peak hours.
  • It is also expected to reduce bottlenecks near Hosakerehalli junction, which has been a major choke point for years.
  • The flyover is likely to cut travel time by 20-30 minutes for commuters traveling through this corridor.

Next Steps

  • The Bengaluru Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) and Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) are coordinating to ensure the flyover’s inauguration and maintenance are smooth.
  • Authorities have also indicated plans for enhanced traffic management measures and regular monitoring to prevent congestion during the initial days after opening.

Commuters across Bengaluru can finally look forward to a much-needed reprieve from daily traffic woes, as this long-awaited infrastructure project promises a faster, safer, and more convenient commute.
