During previous budget, a train was announced between Bangalore and Nelamangala. Does any one has any idea about this train. Whether a new link is planned for Nelamangala? If new link is planned for Nelamangala, then Railways can plan about connecting the same with Bangalore - Mysore line at Kengeri and the same line can be extended upto Anekal via Bannerughatta. |

We know being a DD is not easy but doable? Many times we are tempted/forced to break rules and behave rude. I am sure every DD has come across, so I have few questions. Let us know what is your experiences on this? 1) What makes you really change lanes though you are at right speed and right lane? 2) What makes you honk though you are a DD. |

Need for road divider on St Johns Church Road balu036 - 16-FEB-2011
St Johns Church Road is a major road leading to Mekhri Circle, Peenya and BIAL. The stretch from Bharatinagar Police Station to Coles Park is a crucial stretch with a lot of schools in the nearby location. Unfortunately due to lack of a road divider, there is no lane discipline on this stretch. |

Safety - how do we enforce it? silkboard - 10-AUG-2007Road safety isn't only about rash driving, seat-belts or using cellphones. A thing like this (pic on left) can easily turn into that (pic on right): [flickr-photo:id=1071731120,size=m][flickr-photo:id=1070866891,size=m] Isn't it? What if you were riding or driving behind the blue truck (above) when its load came crashing down on the road? |

silkboard - 30-JUL-2007
Srivathsa mailed in this report from his drive to Devenahalli yesterday: "Drove yesterday to Devanahalli on some other work. The road after Hebbal flyover is in pretty good shape. There are no real bottlenecks there - but a number of potential accident zones. The real bottlenecks are at Cauvery theatre, then the stretch along UAS or just before that. Very narrow roads with a number of right turns and intersections. Some serious de-bottlenecking needs to be done along this stretch. Once past Hebbal - a grade separator is needed at the entry to yelahanka town. Of course a really bad accident will probably have to happen before something gets done. Then along the way there are a number of intersections where grade separators as well as pedestrian overpasses are needed. They also need to plan some elevated U-turns. |

BMTC customer service...a new high mohan anekal - 10-FEB-2011
I had a peculiar experience on 1st Feb while travelling in a BMTC bus. I bought a Volvo Gold Day Pass at Attibele on that day morning. However, the dates 8-11 were torn while tearing the pass from the bunch. Added to that, on the month column, the conductor had ticked 1 and 2. |
