Mysore/Mysuru: Following numerous complaints of poor state of Jodi Thenginamara Road in Bannimantap that connects Highway Circle with Sreenivasa Talkies, the Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) authorities have taken up asphalting of the road, much to the relief of motorists.
The MCC has launched the asphalting works at an estimated cost of Rs. 12 lakh. The MCC has planned to take up further development of the road at an estimated cost of Rs. 50 lakh in the second phase.
According to Mayor Shivakumar, the Jodi Thenginamara road was earlier widened by MUDA on the stretch from Highway circle to JSS Medical college women’s Hostel. But due to heavy traffic movement, the road turned out into poor shape with innumerable potholes. The road continued to be in a poor state for years together, with motorists cursing the authorities for their negligence.
Taking note of the poor state of the road, the MCC has launched asphalting works out of its own grants, Shivakumar said adding that tenders have been invited for taking up further development of the road in the second phase at a cost of Rs. 50 lakh.
