Abhay Patil, MLA, Belagavi South, said that the road was developed under the Smart City Project. He said that the road was developed keeping users in mind. Since it is mostly used by college students and labourers working in the industrial area, it has been built with walkways and bicycle paths alongside, the MLA said.
