Fast growing Mysore, both in terms of size and number of vehicles, will have five subways under the Rs 100 crore special grant of the state government. Chief minister BS Yeddyurappa will lay the foundation for the five subways on February 13.
According to Mysore district in-charge minister Shobha Karandlaje, each subway will cost Rs 1 crore for which tenders have already been invited and the work will be completed in 10 days from the date of acceptance of the tenders in about 20 days. The city’s Dasara procession route, the Sayaji Rao Road, will have four subways, including three at the KR Circle. While one subway is planned on the east of the Albert Victor Road, the second would come up on the southern side and the third on the northern side of the KR Circle.
The fourth on the Sayaji Rao Road is proposed at the junction of Dhanvantri Road, near the KR Hospital.
