Synopsis: Driven by Satellite Town Ring Road (STRR), once a quiet town in north of Bengaluru, Devanahalli, has rapidly transformed into the most suitable real estate investment corridor. Along with the airport-adjacent industrial growth, and infrastructure convergence, this place is rewriting property valuations across North Bengaluru.
The Satellite Town Ring Road (STRR), which is officially designated as NH-948A, is a 280.8 km expressway which is access-controlled. It is developed under the Bharatmala Pariyojana by NHAI. Its main objective is that it encircles Bengaluru and connects 12 satellite towns, including Devanahalli, Doddaballapur, Hoskote, Nelamangala, Ramanagara, and Sarjapur, without routing traffic through the city’s congested core.
Its Impact: The property prices in STRR-connected places, including Devanahalli have already increased by ~20%, and with seamless movement between the airport, aerospace parks, and industrial corridors. STRR is effectively repositioning Devanahalli as Bengaluru’s northern growth engine.

Convergence of BIAL IT Investment Region (ITIR), Airport & Nandi Hills
