On record

A precast concrete slab segment cracked and fell in 2024, injuring an auto-rickshaw driver, repeatedly halting construction pending IISc structural review.

The official record states: "An IISc Bengaluru report concluded the crack was "not a major structural defect," allowing work to resume."

“A flyover that has been paused for structural review more often than it has been built.”— Blunderlust Editorial Desk

Visitor reviews Satire

“My auto driver changed lanes rather than pass under it. A slab came down on one of his colleagues in 2024 and word travels.”
VN V. Nair · Bengaluru★★★★★
“Three years of construction and the most decisive thing to arrive on this site so far is a crack.”
KR K. Reddy · Bengaluru★★★★★
“Stood reading the finding that the fallen segment was 'not a major structural defect'. Comforting, in the way a dentist is comforting.”
JS J. Singh · Bengaluru★★★★★

Citywide (142 public toilets audited) · Public toilet

Bengaluru Public Toilets

A 2026 citizen-led audit of 142 public toilets across Bengaluru found 26% non-functional, only 6 rated "very clean," and 58% with persistent foul odour, despite the city having roughly just one public toilet for every 30,000 residents. The findings renewed calls for urgent sanitation infrastructure and management reforms.

Major Arterial Road, Kadabagere

A newly built ₹500-crore stretch of Bengaluru's Major Arterial Road near Kadabagere developed multiple large sinkholes across a 20-metre stretch just days before its scheduled inauguration on June 27, 2026. A viral video showed gaping craters on the still-uninaugurated road, which remained under contractor control and had not yet been formally handed over to the BDA.

Citywide: Namma Metro Phase 1 & Phase 2 (BMRCL) · Metro station

Namma Metro Land-Cost Overrun

A CAG report tabled in August 2026 found that "improper estimation of land requirements," combined with prolonged delays in land acquisition, inflated Namma Metro's Phase 1 and 2 costs by over ₹6,600 crore. It also found BMRCL posted continuous cash losses from 2013-14 to 2021-22 and remains dependent on state government support to service its debt, with actual ridership falling well short of projections used to justify the heavy-metro design.
