Expressway Corridor will be expandable to six lanes and contain utilities for the project
The expressway component of the Bangalore Mysore Infrastructure Corridor will be an efficient, reliable and safe toll road that represents a key link in the India National Highway system. The roadways will be constructed of high quality material and designed to take advantage of state-of-the-art highway engineering and construction techniques.
At limited access highways, underpasses and overpasses will be constructed to accommodate stream, river, ravine, road and cattle crossings. All roads crossing the expressway will be grade seperated by bridges or underpasses. Access to the expressway will be by interchanges.
To achieve the objective of safe travel and a smooth ride, the expressway will be designed using innovative materials and construction techniques such as continuous cement concrete pavement. As a limited-access expressway with a continuous barrier on either side, the road will prevent ribbon development, increase efficiency of individual travel and cargo movement and improve vehicle safety.
The components of the four-lane expressways consist of the following:
Southern
Section of the Outer Peripheral Road: Approximately 41 kilometers connecting National Highways 7 &
4.
Bangalore-Mysore
Expressway: Approximately 111 kilometers connecting Mysore and Bangalore.
Link Road:
Approximately 9 kilometers connecting the Bangalore-Mysore Expressway to state highway 17.
Elevated Link
Road: Approximately 3 kilometers of elevated expressway connecting the Link Road to downtown Bangalore.
