Bengaluru is one of the most preferred destinations for various service sector companies. That being said, there is a huge problem with traffic that occurs on a daily basis. If you are travelling to Bengaluru for the first time, here are the ten traffic hotspots in the city!

  • Hebbal Flyover:

This flyover is a major bottleneck in the northern part of Bengaluru. The traffic is caused by high traffic density and narrow lanes; the flyover constantly faces traffic congestion leading to hours of delay and accidents.
