Electronic City flyover in Bengaluru to be closed for traffic at night, here’s why

Due to major maintenance work being undertaken by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) on the Electronics City elevated flyover, the Bengaluru traffic police have implemented traffic restrictions starting Wednesday night.

The traffic police department in its advisory stated that vehicular movement on both sides of the flyover—from Silk Board towards Electronic City and vice versa—will be restricted from 11 pm to 6 am daily until further notice. However, the flyover will remain open to all types of vehicles from 6 am to 11 pm.

The 9.98-km elevated corridor from Silk Board junction to Electronic City, serves a vital artery, connecting the city’s core to its prominent technology and manufacturing hub. Authorities have urged commuters to cooperate and plan their travel accordingly to avoid inconvenience. Those traveling at night are advised to use alternative routes.
