Traffic on Old Madras Road towards KR Puram will be disrupted until August due to ongoing work on the Benniganahalli railway bridge in eastern Bengaluru.

Police have rerouted traffic coming from the central business district (CBD) towards KR Puram. Vehicles can take the underpass service road or take a left at the NGEF signal to reach Kalyan Nagar and Hebbal.
