So may be you would try a Bus on the Bus day. And perhaps, you would return disappointed. Or it could be that come Bus day or Fuss day, you just can't get yourself to try BMTC for your commute. Either way, join in and take this short and simple survey and tell BMTC about Bus Commute experience or lack of it. |

I am interested in creating a complete database of Volvo routes (each stop on each route along with timing info) in Bangalore. How/Where do I get this information ? I already have a lot of information from your bus day route map. I really appreciate this effort. I do see Volvo buses which are not in your map. |

Help Desk for Bus Day - Useful Links kbsyed61 - 2-FEB-2010
Route maps, help desk number and more, |
Here is a media reports round up of the Bus Day initiative we triggered and participated in. Good coverage all around, and going by some of the reports (25% jump in ridership, breather on some corridors etc), looks like the city has made a good beginning. The event is likely to become a permanent fixture on BMTC's and Bengaluru's calendar. Lets hope BMTC will act fast on all the feedback the event generated for them.
First of all, my sincere thanks to all the Praja members who worked very hard to publicize this event wide and far. Result is that it has reached more than 40k population in IT companies just by Praja efforts alone. Today's news papers are full with Bus Day buzz and Praja is being given credit for its excellent web presence and information.
