Major arterial road connectivity in NPKL
One of the key highlights of NPKL is the 10.57 km long, 100-meter wide arterial road that:
- Runs centrally through the entire layout
- Connects Bangalore–Mysore Road to Bangalore–Magadi Road
- Runs parallel to NICE Road
- Provides internal access to all 9 blocks
This makes NPKL extremely well-connected to Mysore Road, Magadi Road, Kengeri, and NICE interchanges.
Utilities provided by BDA
The BDA has proposed laying a dedicated RCC utility duct to prevent the road from being cut and to ease maintenance, with fresh water, recycled water, and electrical cables already laid in the ducts. The same ducts may be used to lay telephone cables, OFC network, GAIL gas network, and TV cable network in the future. All the nine blocks have sewage treatment plants (STP) which clean waste water for reuse.
Lease period of BDA sites
The lease period for sites in NPKL is 10 years from the date of allotment. The lease agreement is executed between the allottee and the BDA. The deed of the document will be named lease cum sale deed. After 10 years, the Bangalore Development Authority will provide an absolute sale deed, then, allottees will be eligible to sell the property. This condition is not applicable to BDA incentive site or land owner compensation site, the alternate site and the auction site.
