Even though both tenders value is small,  purose is very improtant and further SWR should invest in removing bottelnecks  by investing MEMU Maintenance shed at Bayyappanhalli which will not cost more then Rs 10 Crore.

Status of City Station Pedestrian facility works progress

Sanjeev - 14 May, 2014 - 18:45

Status of Pedestrian facility at Bangalore City Station during last 5 years on 1. New Foot Over Bridge connecting all 10 Platforms on Cantonment end ( Chennai end ), 2. Extending existing FOB to Milk colony with wider FOB, 3. Extending subway from PF-1 to entrance of city station. Here is the status of all three works from SWR, after 4/5 years, SWR struggling to complet these simple works like BMRC struggling for MG road Station skywalk to connect plaza theater side since 3 years. Wake up SWR Bangalore, these are very much needed for passengers. How can SWR sleep on these during last 4 years where Railway Board has given clearance and funds too. No one to blame here except SWR officials only.

Already Bangalore is lacking proper pedestrain facility,  even railways are also playing to BBMP / BDA actions.
