Unlike 20 minutes earlier, it took Mrs Biju Chacko, a resident of Sector 6, almost two hours to reach Ecospace in Bellandur just now.
Google Maps is telling us that the distance of around 9 kilometres can now be reached in 44 minutes because “fastest route now due to traffic conditions, and it’s getting better”.
Having just reached the office, Mrs Chacko was asking us, “Is there a problem on Outer Ring Road? Left HSR two hours ago and just reached Ecospace. There is bumper to bumper traffic.”
To all those people who are planning to use ORR, this will serve as a forewarning, so you can either postpone your travel plans or defer them.
UPDATEAt 1210pm, Google Maps is showing a 28-minute delay from Sector 6 to Ecospace, and this traffic congestion was first reported as early as 8am. Similarly, there is a 18-minute delay if you are taking the stretch from Jakkasandra to Ecospace.
