32.29 hectares will be acquired for proposed 16.7-km tunnel between Hebbal & Silk Board
KARNATAKA Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar's recent reply to BJP MLC CT Ravi revealed that 32.29 hectares (79.79 acres) of land will be acquired for the proposed 16.7-km Tunnel Road Project (TRP) between Hebbal and Silk Board.
An expert analysis has compared this land requirement with the length of regular surface roads that could be built using the same area.
Explaining the comparison, Rajkumar Dugar, founder of Citizens for Citizens, said the land to be acquired for the tunnel road could instead be used to construct 16.1 km of a two-way, two-lane road with a median and footpaths, or 11.5km of a 3+3 lane road with median and footpaths.
