Let us help BMTC re-enthuse Bus Day with support and new ideas for more experiments.

KSRTC outsourcing O&M of Mysore & Shimoga bus terminals

Check this report in today's ToI. And, the tendering is being handled by Earnst & Young.

Better facilities for private run buses!

BusPublic Transport

There is no denial that private bus service is being operated in Bengaluru and other places without having its own/leased infrastructure like Terminus or bus stops. As noted in the Imran_haq's ordeal in Kalasipalya, in absence of proper infrastructure, these buses are making use of the public spaces like Roads, gullys, playgrounds even making use of no parking spaces.

Not more auto's; instead, good shuttle bus services please!

The transport department and traffic police are mulling over reforms that could scale up the number of autorickshaws in the city from about 80,000 to 95,000. Simukltaneously, however, the Transport commissioner, Bhaskar Rao, himself states “The system has many anti-social elements. The common man is a victim.

Shortcut routes for Buses

BusPublic Transport

 BMTC buses take the main roads whereas private transport takes the short cut routes wherever possible. This in comparison will increase the travel time of BMTC buses as against private transport making  private transport more attractive.

 

Buses - largest fleet, still crowded?

BusPublic Transport

We often read announcements by the BMTC authorities that Bengaluru bus fleet is the largest in India or Asia. Where are the buses?

BMTC and publishing bus timings

BusPublic Transport

We all know that BMTC can't maintain a simple web site with details about their services and timings.

Is it possible to get an Excel sheet with all their routes and timings in regular intervals?

I remember seeing one before the first Bus Day. After that, I haven't seen an updated one.

Should we offer help in putting one together?
