The police have clamped several traffic restrictions on many key roads in the city and South-Western Railway has cancelled a train and rescheduled many ahead of Modi’s visit.
The police have advised commuters to take alternate routes to Bengaluru International Airport to the elevated corridor and Ballari road.
The Bengaluru Traffic Police (BTP) has exclusively earmarked the Hennur- Kothanur – Bagaluru – Beguru road for the use of the Airport passengers to avoid congestion.
“The use of the airport road from Hebbal to BIAL, via Yelahanka, will lead to delays,” Joint Commissioner of Police Ravikanthe Gowda said in a statement.
