Mysuru: The traffic on Hunsur Road from the Jaladarshini Guest House opposite Kalamandira up to the Mosque near Valmiki Road, which was closed for many months to straighten the road, was opened to the traffic from yesterday.
About four to five months back the environmentalists and activists had vehemently opposed the straightening of the stretch at a cost of Rs.13 crore, as they feared the felling of 79 trees and said that the curve near Jaladarshini Guest House was not the problem but it was dangerous driving that led to fatal accidents.
