Lavelle Road is an upmarket residential[2] and commercial street in the city of Bangalore, Karnataka in India. It is an important connection between Mahatma Gandhi Square and Richmond Circle. The road starts from the Queens Road end of the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium and after curving in a serpentine manner meets the junction of Bangalore Club with Richmond Circle. Lavelle Road was named after Michael F Lavelle, an Irish soldier who later made his money in the Kolar Gold Fields.[2]
