Link Road 4, despite its strategic location connecting 6th Main Road and 4th Main Road, remains severely underutilized. Flanked by the Defence Colony Cricket Ground and the BFLA Football Ground, and linking further to the Children’s Park at the far end, the stretch holds significant latent potential as a community-centric public space. However, it currently suffers from several infrastructural and civic challenges: . Dilapidated park boundaries, with broken or missing fencing, blur the lines between public and semi-public spaces, affecting both safety and visual coherence. . Illegal garbage dumping at corners and along the edges has turned parts of the road into informal waste sites, posing health and sanitation concerns while diminishing its potential. . Unorganized and haphazard parking disrupts pedestrian movement and severs physical and visual connectivity between the road and the parks it borders. . Overgrown vegetation and neglected landscaping further reduce visibility and usability, rendering the corridor unwelcoming and unkempt. These issues, however, present a unique opportunity—not just to clean up and restore the stretch—but to re-imagine Link Road 4 as an active, pedestrian-friendly spine that invites community interaction, supports local ecology, and contributes to the broader public realm of Defence Colony and Indiranagar 2nd Stage.
