Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday inaugurated the 118 Km long Bengaluru-Mysuru Expressway project in Maddur. It will reduce the travel time between the two cities from around three hours to about 75 minutes, according to officials.

The Prime Minister also laid the foundation stone for Mysuru-Kushalnagar 4 lane highway.
Spread over 92 Km, the project will be developed at a cost of around Rs 4130 crores. The project will play a key role in boosting connectivity of Kushalnagar in Kodagu district with the state capital Bengaluru and will help halve the travel time from about five hours, officials said.
