kbsyed61 - 25-APR-2009

Prajagale,

In coming days we would be doing a online survey to get reasons for people using or not using the BMTC bus service, in particular Volvo/BIG-10/KS. Here is the list of questions that forms the survey:

The bus is now beginning to re-establish its position as the primary mode for public transport. And, of course, the importance of public transport is a now a no-brainer. Given this scenario, government monopolies (BMTC & KSRTC) occupying this critical space is an anomaly that cannot be suffered any longer.

Revised Kendra Sarige / HOHO routes

Rithesh - 24-APR-2009

After a poor response from the public to the initial Kendra Sarige services, the BMTC has revised the routes. The highlight of the new route is, it connects the 3 main BMTC hubs (TTMCs) - KempeGowda Bus Stand (Majestic), Shantinagar Bus Stand and Shivajinagar Bus Stand.

Now the BMTC needs to fight the other half of the battle of planning and executing the plan for route rationalization.

Alternative to Tree 'Cutting'

BMTC - tracking and interaction

silkboard - 3-MAR-2009

Those who think they know BMTC well, tell us this. How do they plan new bus routes? How do they actually make a profit? How often do they undertake routing and deployment reforms? How do they get help from BBMP and Traffic Police - any agreement based approach?
