Speaking at the state legislature, public works minister Satish Jarkiholi said, “A total of 24 foot over bridges will be coming across the expressway. These will help villagers to cross the expressway without jumping out of the fence or damaging them. These will be constructed in villages that fall in Bengaluru Urban, Mysuru and Mandya districts.”

Earlier, Mysuru – Kodagu MP Pratap Simha also urged villagers to not damage the fences on the expressway. Simha also said that the bracings on poles that are erected on both sides of the highway are being stolen. “Along with the fencing disruptions, the bracings on the poles are missing and it is sad for me to complain about such things. All these are installed with your own money, and they will also be re-installed with your money. Kindly do not indulge in any such activities and use the infrastructure mindfully,” he said earlier.
