Ever since the growth of the Electronics City into a region of high economic activity since the beginning of the new millenium, problems of increased road traffic all along the route to the Electronics City have multiplied. The region also became vulnerable as a target of terror attacks. ELCIA was therefore entrusted with the responsibility of managing both these critical tasks by themselves. The congestion of the Hosur road, coupled with the lack of any other alternative route, assumed alarming proportions to the extent of even contributing to employee attrition besides affecting health and stress. It was therefore ELCIA's responsibility to find some solutions, which it did with elan.

ELCIA organised for the engagement of Traffic wardens to regulate and manage the traffic all along the Hosur Road from Silk Board junction to the Electronics City. These wardens, who toil through the day in the middle of the road exposed to all forms of pollution apart from an unfriendly weather, bring some relief to the road users. The provision of these Wardens has yielded tremendous results in the form of reduced stress levels, shorter travel time, fewer traffic jams and more smiles on the faces of the travelling public. This experiment has been so successful that the scheme had to be extended at the request of the Police to cover more distant areas such as the BTM layout and the Sarjapur road.

The idea of a "road on stilts" came from no less a person than Mr. NR Narayan Murthy at the start of the new millenium. The GoI appreciated the idea and the NHAI was assigned the task of making this a reality at the earliest. The project is now referred to as the "Elevated Highway". This mammoth project, executed by a consortium of three construction companies, is scheduled to be operational by the by January 2009. ELCIA has been the coordinating agency for the project. Being one of the longest elevated highways in the country, state of the art technology has been applied in its construction. This involves off-site pre-cast modular interlocking segments being linked together serially on site.

The steep growth of the knowledge sector in the Electronics City brought with it increased number of people with consequent increase in vehicles of all types. A survey showed that around 2000 vehicles pass through the Electronics City during the peak hour and a total of about 20,000 vehicles enter the Electronics City every day. With many of the roads hardly wider than 10 meters, this has choked the roads and no space is left for parking of vehicles in the public areas. ELCIA has engaged its security and traffic wardens for regulation of all traffic inside the Electronics City. ELCIA has received excellent cooperation from all its member organisations to make adequate provision within their premises for parking of vehicles. ELCIA has also created "Pay & Park" facility within the KSSIDC compound as a public utility.

While the large and established organisations in the Electronics City have their own internal security control in place, ELCIA recognised that a minimal security monitoring mechanism in the general public areas of the Electronics City should be present as a deterrence. With this objective, a security plan commencing with a rudimentary patrolling of the estate was put in place in the late 90's. This was subsequently upgraded to the engagement of a team of security guards in 2007. On the basis of a thorough study into the security requirements of the Electronics City carried out by the CISF, ELCIA is now in the process of setting up a full fledged hi-tech integrated surveillance monitoring and control system with a centralised control room. The system includes barrier control at all the entry and exit points of the Electronics City. This facility would encompass both traffic and security related issues.
