Wonder what happened to TTMCs

marsdon - 5-SEP-2013

Hi, I was wondering what happened to TTMC's or Bus stations. I stay near K R Puram. I feel there should be a Bus Stand or TTMC in KR Puram so that it can be well connected to various parts of city. For e.g If they introduce a BMTC bus from K R Puram to Whitefield via Bhattarahalli or via Budigere Cross. Half the people would prefer this since this less crowded.

Dedicated Bus / High Occupancy Vehicles (HOV) Lane around CBD

Vasanth - 3-AUG-2013

We see huge number of Buses passing through some of the CBD Area in Bangalore few of the roads. Despite of that, there is no dedicated lanes for BMTC buses and other High Occupancy Vehicles such as office shuttles. This slows down Public Transport Buses and also leads to accidents such as Buses hitting 2 wheeler leading to fatalities.

Dear Prajaites,

Congestion and Traffic Woes - Ramamurthy Nagar Main Road from ITI Gate to ORR.

msshankar1961@gmail.com - 11-JUL-2013

Off late the entire stretch of  Rama Murthy Nagar Main from ITI gate to ORR is becoming so congested and trafic woes are unbearble.Adding the fuel is by parking of the BMTC Buses without any common sense at the Bus stops. From ITI gate to ORR we need to come behind the Bus only. No way, we can able to overtake the BMTC Buses. 

BMTC incorrect stage, costlier than own vehicle

Hi All,

Just to bring classic example how BMTC loots people.

Place: Agara junction to SIlk board

Distance: 3.3 kms Fare 12 rs (normal bus)

Stage: 2 stages

As per rule we need to have stage for every 2 kms but here we have 3 stage just to loot people.

Reach 3 would be starting services soon, we need to study a plan and share the same with BMTC and BMRC.

BMRC can also provide free service for 7km from MG Road -> Majestic - Railway Station -> Swastik Station.

I am attaching to and fro routes.

With and Without ticket travel experiences in BMTC

Vasanth - 7-MAY-2013

I daily travel a distance of around 2 kms by BMTC bus to catch my office shuttle from Janatha Bazar Katriguppe to Devegowda Petrol Bunk. I earlier used to wait and catch Volvo since it was Rs. 10 and now Rs. 15 for mere 2 kms. I sometime do 'Auto Pool' if I get one of my colleague which costs only 20 for 2, otherwise take our good old 'Parisara Vahini'.
