| Take out cameras and shoot the pictures of Bangalore's most talked-about road.
The ever-so-vibrant Mahatma Gandhi Road will never be the same again.
The road that presents one of the great contrasts — a catwalk like space occupied by those dressed to kill on the one side, and a peaceful and picturesque boulevard on the other — is set to change forever.
People using this most arterial road of the Cantonment area will have to endure the construction of the elevated structure for the Metro rail whose pillars will rest on the boulevard.
Citizens can expect traffic diversions within a fortnight for the construction of Metro rail on a seven-km stretch of the 33-km Metro rail network.
When ready, the imposing elevated structure will partly loom over the heads of those walking on the boulevard and partly on the road.
The contractor, Navayuga Engineering Company (India) (NEC), is all set to move in the equipment.
The Hyderabad-based company has bagged the Rs. 138-crore award for construction of the elevated structure from Chinnaswamy Cricket Stadium to Byappanahalli.
