This was taken at BDA jn. on Chowdiah rd. The bus stop is to the left of the picture and within 100mtrs have to cut across 2 lanes to get to BDA magic overpass across palace road. If it were only buses I can understand, even cars & 2 wheelers who dont have to be at the bus stop go as left as they can and cut right into the overpass. SO in this picture the blue BMTC is the 2nd lane which can go on the 2 lane overpass but the 3rd lane is formed by the pvt bus and the white ambassador forms the 4th lane which will also cut into the 2 lane overpass. Most of the 2 wheelers all over the road are also heading towards the 2 lane overpass. There is both road engineering fault & indiscipline issues at work. I know what BBMP is thinking and NO, the answer is not to widen the overpass.
Whats your engineering solution to this situation?
See how even rainwater drainage is occupied ! What a "lane disclipline" ! Observe both the buses. If I was not observing lane discipline I would have been just behind the blue bus. Though I felt sorry for wasting space, I thought it was worthy to do so.
Note: Picture was taken near E-City Phase-1 Signal, during red signal.
Sorry for the departure from traffic, but, on a day when one Praja member is meeting a lawyer to file a PIL/RTI and all such stuff for pedestrian rights, I am dedicating todays weekend picture to pedestrians of our city

A nice picture. But what is the point? The debris should be cleared as fast as possible. Was it done? psaram42
