Yes-there is absolutely no maintainence of the fares-the south bangalore black board routes being the most costliest of all routes i have seen. Till 2001-02 situation was quite okay because...
@RV Raja Rao
Sir, there is no difference in fares for same distance but at times, as i had mentioned in my blog once, the Red board buses are shorter at times thus becoming cheaper-EG...

True- seriously a concept to fight for. Though MBS-1 wasnt very popular for its route and never got a good crowd many routes like MBS-9, MBS-10(Revised route from BTM to Kasturinagar), MBS-11...
One serious thing we require BMTC to do is first among everything else allott the stages properly and adhere to the norms of keeping a stage every 2 kms once and not 500 mts once as it is...
The stopping of Big-10's at enterances is quite abrupt end to the long routes. Some routes are seriously in view of extension and conversion. Why have a G-2 and B-2 separately-all G-2's can...

Sure-can do that-first will try sending them a e-mail-anyway the 500BM is not dependent on crowd of East end as it gets 50% full at Nandini hotel itself-and some wait at 9th cross so ifee it is...
Tumkur residents have always been demanding trains regularly from Bangalore. Few months back in hindu there was a news regarding people wanting a train around 7PM as there was no train after 6:...
We might even ask for diversion of Volvo 500BM and 500KM via Delmia circle and mico check post on Bannerghatta road instead of via East end-this way people can change over at checkpost itself now...
Not only this a bus will be reuired towards Banashankari as well-or else the only option is taking 364 or 369 to East end and cross over-and these buses dont run till Gottigere-366H, AS-16,366P...
Quite a required route. Its quite a bad state seeing so many peole get down adn walk all the way. Except the very rare 411J no other bus has a right turn there.
Gottigere is...
Chennasandra Railway Station is close to Ring road well enough to connect many places. It can seriosuly be considered. I feel it is better that train sstop at Chennasandra rather than stopping at...

in other areas the prviate sector entering but not in the transport sector-As far as I have used the pvt sector they have proved to be worse than the public sector enterprises...
Spotted a bus at Marenhalli signal today-didnt have a proper route board but FDR-6 was printed boldly on white paper and affixed to the front and back glasses(Chikkalasandra-Uttarahalli-...
Very true sir-the stages arent kept uniformly and thats the main reason for high fares prevailing. If they keep the fares as per the norms of atleast maintaining the 2km distance on the streches...
The Ring road services are the cheapest among all the services running in the city-the stages fixed for them are quite reasonable t. Like I said earlier fare for J.P.Nagar to Jayanagar distance of...
This looks quite viable-BMTC is said to have asked 6 months time for the procurement of these machines only. Well if it happens it is seriously good thing
