Sarat Bose Road, previously known as Lansdowne Road, is a 3.5 km long stretch of road that connects Southern Avenue (near Rabindra Sarobar Stadium) with AJC Bose Road (at Minto Park) and separates two major localities of Ballygunge and Bhawanipore in South Kolkata, India. South of Southern Avenue crossing, Sarat Bose Road becomes Deboki Kumar Bose Sarani.[2]

Localities

Sarat Bose Road runs north to south almost parallel to Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Road and Gariahat Road. It starts from the Rabindra Sarobar Stadium (Lake Stadium) on the south and moves almost vertically up intersecting other major thoroughfares like Lake Road, Rash Behari Avenue, and Hazra Road just up a few blocks from Ramakrishna Mission Seva Pratishthan, proceeds up north with the famous Lansdowne Market and Padmapukur Square on the left, intersects Chakraberia Road and finally winds it way through Elgin Road, Diocesan High School and ends after meeting AJC Bose Road at Minto Park. It also intersects the smaller arterial roads of Raja Basanta Roy Road, Dr. Sarat Banerjee Road, Manoharpukur Road, Beltala Road, Padmapukur Road, Mahendra Road and Rowland Road. The entire stretch of Sarat Bose Road is a mix of commercial and shopping zones as well as residential zones.
