Old Madras Road Proximity 2026

Purva Northern Lights is located on Bagalur Main Road inside KIADB Aerospace Park. The site sits on the North Bangalore corridor, not directly on Old Madras Road. But the two corridors link up through a few key roads.

So how does Old Madras Road connect to this project?

You can reach Old Madras Road from Purva Northern Lights via NH 44, Outer Ring Road, or the Satellite Town Ring Road. KR Puram, a major junction on Old Madras Road, is roughly 22 to 25 km from the project. The drive takes about 35 to 45 minutes depending on traffic.

That means you can access localities along Old Madras Road without using city roads. The STRR and ORR give you a bypass.

Many buyers ask about residential areas along Old Madras Road. That corridor includes KR Puram, Hoodi, Mahadevapura, Brookefield, and Whitefield. These are strong IT and residential zones.

But here is the difference. Purva Northern Lights sits on the North Bangalore side. It connects to Old Madras Road localities through the ORR and STRR. That gives you a bypass route without going through city congestion.

For buyers who work in Whitefield or ITPL, Bagalur Road offers a different deal. You trade close proximity to Old Madras Road for airport access in 8 km and a Metro station in 2 km.

Not everyone works on the Old Madras Road belt. But if your office is anywhere between KR Puram and Marathahalli, the ORR route keeps you connected.

How do you get from Purva Northern Lights to the city centre?

There are three main road options.

• NH 44 connects Bagalur Road to Hebbal. From Hebbal, you reach MG Road in about 30 to 35 minutes.
• The Satellite Town Ring Road links the project to ORR and further into the city.
• The upcoming Peripheral Ring Road will add another direct bypass once complete.

For buyers who need city centre access, Hebbal is roughly 18 km away. Hebbal sits at the northern edge of the inner city and connects to Bellary Road toward the airport side.

That makes Purva Northern Lights a good fit for professionals who commute into the city 2 to 3 days a week, not every day.

Metro Connectivity Along the Blue Line

This is the strongest connectivity point. The Namma Metro Blue Line, also called the Airport Line, connects KR Puram to Kempegowda International Airport.

Doddajala Metro Station on this line is just 2 km from the project. Once the Blue Line becomes fully operational, you can travel from Bagalur Road to KR Puram by metro without driving through city traffic.

KR Puram is a major node on Old Madras Road. So the Blue Line gives you direct metro access to the Old Madras Road corridor. That is a strong plus for IT professionals who work in KR Puram or near Mahadevapura.

The Blue Line Phase 2B is 37 km long. It connects KIAL to KR Puram via stations like Chikkajala, Doddajala, Bettahalasuru, and Yelahanka.

Both corridors serve different buyer needs. Here is how they compare.

Old Madras Road neighbourhoods:

• KR Puram, strong railway and metro node
• Hoodi, mid-segment residential belt
• Mahadevapura, IT office cluster
• Brookefield, retail and social infrastructure
• Whitefield, premium IT and residential zone

Bagalur Road and KIADB Aerospace Park zone:

• Devanahalli, airport corridor with SEZ designation
• Bagalur Cross, mid-segment entry point
• KIADB Aerospace Park, aerospace and hardware tech jobs
• Yelahanka, established North Bangalore hub with schools and hospitals

For buyers comparing both corridors, the choice depends on where you work and what price point you target. Old Madras Road projects tend to carry a higher per sq ft price due to mature infrastructure. Bagalur Road and the Aerospace Park zone give you newer infrastructure at a lower base price, with strong appreciation expected once the Blue Line is operational.

Buyers from the KR Puram and Whitefield belt often look at Purva Northern Lights for two reasons.

First, the price. At ₹80 lakhs onwards for a 1 BHK, the per sq ft pricing is lower than comparable projects near Old Madras Road. You get more space for your budget.

Second, the metro. Once Doddajala Metro Station opens on the Blue Line, you will have a direct rail link to KR Puram. That removes the daily car commute for Old Madras Road workers.

The project is RERA approved under PRM/KA/RERA/1251/309/PR/120326/008523. Construction started in April 2026. Contractor Kalpataru Projects International and architect Kembhavi Architecture are handling the build. Possession is set for 31 December 2029.

The total project cost is ₹859 crore. That gives you a sense of the scale Puravankara has committed here.

Properties near Old Madras Road have seen steady price growth over 10 years. The Whitefield and KR Puram belt has strong rental demand. But new supply in that zone is limited.

Bagalur Road is a different story. It is an early-stage investment now. But the Blue Line metro, STRR, Aerospace SEZ jobs from Boeing, Airbus, and Shell, and BLR Airport at 8 km all point to strong capital appreciation ahead.

For investors who know Old Madras Road well, Purva Northern Lights offers an entry into a comparable growth story. Just on the North side.

Rental yields in the Aerospace Park zone already touch 4.5 to 5.2 percent. That is strong for a project still under construction.
