BBMP head office issued notification clarifying that it is the empowered authority to issue TDR (Transferable Development Rights) certificates. The notification resolves confusion about which authority could issue certificates for 45 landowners who lost land in the Kadubeesanahalli road-widening project over the past five years.

Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) and Embassy Office Parks REIT signed a definitive agreement on February 28 for construction of Kadubeesanahalli Metro Station on the Outer Ring Road line from Central Silk Board to K.R Pura, Phase-2A of Namma Metro project.

Vikas Telecom Pvt. Ltd. (VTPL), part of Embassy REIT, will invest ₹100 crore in construction. In return, BMRCL will offer naming rights, advertisement rights, commercial space and direct connectivity for 30 years. The station will be named 'Embassy TechVillage Kadubeesanahalli Metro Station'.

The ORR corridor connects key commercial hubs, office parks, and residential areas in Bengaluru.

Bengaluru office park owners are investing in transport links as GCCs drive demand for workplaces with easier commutes. Bagmane Prime Office REIT committed ₹40 crore to co-develop Bagmane DRDO Sports Complex Metro Station and will upgrade its amenities and facade. It is building a rail-over-bridge linking its Whitefield assets to Outer Ring Road, avoiding crossings that add 15–20 minutes, and has built flyovers and walkways connecting Bagmane Tech Park and Bagmane Cosmos.

The ITPB Metro Skywalk, opened earlier in 2026, links Pattandur Agrahara Metro Station to International Tech Park Bangalore and Park Square Mall, serving over 55,000 professionals; CapitaLand India Trust partnered with BMRCL. Prestige Group completed a 1.5-km flyover between Outer Ring Road and Old Airport Road and will build Bellandur metro station near its upcoming 8-million-sq-ft Prestige Lakeshore Drive campus.

Embassy REIT spent ₹100 crore on Kadubeesanahalli Metro Station and ₹183 crore on a 1-km public flyover beside Embassy Manyata Business Park, serving over 100,000 employees. The station is on the 17-km Outer Ring Road corridor between Central Silk Board and K.R. Puram. India recorded 66.4 million sq ft of office leasing in January–September 2026, up 8%; GCCs leased a record 28 million sq ft, or 42%.

A Karnataka High Court division bench comprising Justices D.K. Singh and H. Shanthi Bhushan directed KIADB and authorities to pay Brightsword Technologies 8% interest on its ₹38 lakh deposit from December 2009. KIADB’s chief executive officer said no litigation-free land in a single parcel measuring eight acres was available at Defence & Aerospace Park, Devanahalli, or Aveerahalli, Dobaspet Industrial Area Phase 4.

Brightsword had applied through Karnataka Udyog Mitra to establish an IT park in Kadubeesanahalli, Varthur Hobli, Bengaluru East, with an investment of ₹43,000 crore. The State-Level Single Window Clearance Committee approved the application on October 20, 2003, and directed the special land acquisition officer to acquire and hand over 8.5 acres. Land inspections and other formalities were conducted.

• The 58.19-km Blue Line runs from Silk Board to Bengaluru airport. Its Silk Board–KR Puram section (2A) is 27 km; viaduct and other works remain, and trials have not begun. It was due to open in March 2026, but opening by December 2026 is uncertain.
• The KR Puram–airport section (2B) is 38.44 km. The 27.4-km Hebbal–airport stretch is 72% complete. Most viaduct and railway-crossing work is complete; work near Yelahanka may take two months. Civil works are expected to finish by June 2027, followed by trial runs, signalling checks and other tests. Opening is planned for December 2027 if testing proceeds as expected.
• Minister Krishna Byregowda called for trials on 2A in October, but BMRCL has not provided an update. The 29 planned stations include HSR Layout, Agara, Bellandur, Mahadevapura, KR Puram, Kasturi Nagar, Horamavu, Kalyan Nagar, Hennur, Nagawara, Hebbal, Kodigehalli, Jakkur, Yelahanka and Doddajala.
