You should definitely get a house on Bannur road. Do you have any idea how the real estate sector has prospered because of this ORR project? However property owners within a 500 metre radius had to levy a betterment task and now that the work is almost complete, it is such an efficient highway that is extremely well lit. I read here http://www.commonfloor.com/search/public?q=apartments+bannur+road+mysore that you won't be facing any electricity issues and you get some really nice apartments in that locality.

I was one of those people who had everyday headaches because of this project. I worked in an IT company in the city and had to use that road everyday but there were many diversions I had to take just to avoid traffic and congestion. I don't live there anymore so I am not too sure about the current situation but as of the beginning of the year, the 9 km stretch from Bannur to Nanjangad Road was still under construction. I remember facing many power cuts also because of all the road work.

This project started in 2009 in order for Mysore to face less traffic as the highway allows people to travel to Tamil Nadu, Kerela and Madikeri without having to enter the city at all. The authorities decided to finally get a move on the project (about time) only by November last year. Initially the project was going to construct 6 lanes but because there wasn't enough funding, only 2 lanes were set which created a big headache for those who use that road regularly. The project seems to be almost completed though.
