Madiwala Bus Stop

Bheema.Upadhyaya - 23-FEB-2010

 I saw 2 months back, Madiwala police station bus stop has been relocated to madiwala market with a better infrastructure. What I mean is there is a laybye for buses to stop , at least 3 buses at a time. It was also tarred, I guess at least with cost of 10 lakhs. It had also a footpath-cum-waiting place for passengers.

Local shuttle ideas for next Bus Day (March 4)

silkboard - 22-FEB-2010

Now that BMTC and Transport Minister have liked the concept, let us make suggestions to make the most, and more immportant. meaningful use of the idea-pad cum marketing event called Bus Day.

For starters, I think we should try do not more than 2 corridors on each Bus day. 5 is a lot to cover and do, there is no point being wide but thin in coverage.

4 March Bus Day - New corridors announced

silkboard - 22-FEB-2010

Got this email from BMTC late last week. Most significant part in there is

1. Confirmation that next Bus Day is on for March 4th
2. 5 corridors for next Bus Day: Old Madras Road (new), Bannerghatta Road (new), Old Airport Road, Hosur Road, Sarjapura Road (new).

New Corridor means extra buses, more cops at key points on the corridors to manage bus traffic, and hopefuly, some local shuttles around these corridors on the day

Here is the note received from BMTC:

New line - Tumkur to Hindupur

K.S.Ramanujam - 21-FEB-2010

I want to suggest a Railway link between Tumkur with Hindupur, both falling in the south westren Rail zone. This will help everyone in west & southwest regions to reach Puttaparthy which is  a place to go for many people.

How to cross Hosur Road below Elevated Expressway

gsvasan - 19-FEB-2010

There is no easy way for people on the ground to cross express way (Hosur Road) by bus and cycle. One needs to walk or traverse a long distance to cross the elevated expressway as there is no footpath. For example if you got to building say across pier 26, u need to cycle or walk to pier 51 and come all the way back.

What can we do about this? are the roads not for common people?
