A petition has sought the removal of toll charges on Bengaluru’s nearly 10-km Electronics City Flyover after the concession period ended. The flyover runs along Hosur Road from Bommanahalli near the Central Silk Board to Electronics City. The supplied material gives no response from authorities or operator.

A petition has sought an end to toll collection on Bengaluru’s Electronics City Flyover after the concession period ended, The Hindu reported. The flyover is nearly 10 kilometres long and runs along Hosur Road between Bommanahalli, near the Central Silk Board, and Electronics City. The project was initiated in 2006 and inaugurated on January 22, 2010, according to the supplied material.

The petition’s demand is based on the assertion that the concession period has ended. The available source does not identify the petitioner, state when the request was submitted, or explain the terms of the concession. It also does not say whether toll collection is continuing, identify the agency or company responsible for operating the flyover, or provide a response from government authorities or the operator.

The request therefore centres on whether charges should continue on the elevated road following the end of its concession period. No further details about the petition or any decision on it are included in the source material.
