The Bangalore-Mysore Infrastructure Corridor (BMIC) project, popularly known as NICE Road, after the consortium that builds it, is the most ambitious infrastructure project underway in the state. It not only provides seamless connectivity from Bangalore to Mysore, but also envisages the implementation of ancillary projects along this corridor to enable comprehensive development of the region. The modern expressway, according to NICE will be an efficient, reliable and safe road constructed using state-of-the-art highway engineering and construction techniques. The road will enable safe travel at 120 km/h which will bring the travel time between Mysore and Bangalore down to just one hour. It will have underpasses and overpasses wherever necessary to bypass intersecting roads or natural obstructions, and enable uninterrupted traffic from Bangalore to Mysore. Major intersections will have interchanges to integrate other roads to the Expressway.
