BENGALURU: Ahead of the onset of the monsoon, Urban Development Minister Byrathi Basavaraj and BBMP Chief Commissioner Gaurav Gupta asked officials of South Western Railway to complete work on the railway bridge expansion on Hebbal valley at the earliest.
BBMP officials said that water flows through Hebbal valley to Kalkere and Rampura lakes. If there is 60mm of rain per hour in this valley, there is no problem, but the area gets waterlogged if there is more than 80mm rain. To address this, the narrow railway bridge near Hebbal valley should be widened.
