Bengaluru: Hebbal flyover developed a minor crack on Tuesday evening.

The Hebbal traffic police informed the Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) officials, consultants and experts who rushed to the trouble spot on Wednesday morning.

The problem is on the arm leading towards Hennur from the airport. Motorists plying on the stretch feel a thud and vibrations.

“This is the first time we have come across such an expansion joint problem at any flyover. To decide on the next course of action and ensure that there are no untoward incidents, a detailed report has been sought from all stakeholders. A meeting will be held on Saturday. Then the next course of action, including, whether traffic needs to be diverted, will be decided,” said an expert who inspected the site.

However the BDA officials assured of quick fix for this issue.

The Hebbal flyover links Bengaluru to north Bengaluru and the airport and is part of the flyover maintained by the National Highways Authority of India (NHIA).
