Bengaluru: Commuters on JC Road will face traffic restrictions starting today as the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) commences white-topping work from Nala Junction to Town Hall Junction. The project is expected to impact traffic flow significantly, with vehicular movement prohibited on this section until the work is completed.
The white-topping project along JC Road, which stretches from Nala Junction to Town Hall Junction, aims to improve road durability and offer a smoother driving experience for Bengaluru’s commuters. However, the ongoing construction will result in temporary road closures, creating potential traffic delays.

- For vehicles travelling from Hosur Road towards Majestic via JC Road: Motorists should take a right turn near Lalbagh Main Gate, then proceed through KH Road, Shantinagar, and Richmond Circle to reach their destinations.
- For vehicles heading north from South End Circle via JC Road: Drivers should take a left at Minerva Circle and follow the route through Lalbagh Fort Road, eventually connecting with KR Road.
