Whitefield TTMC - work in full swing

BusPublic Transport

I passed by the Whitefield TTMC, which is located near the Vaidehi hospital within the EPIP Industrial zone.  Construction is ongoing, in full swing.  Once again, I cannot help being disappointed at the choice of location of this TTMC.  This is in the middle of an Industrial zone.  All the residential areas are well removed from here.

The Car. The Bus. The India

Summary: How long a country of billion can sustain with a culture of "My car My way"? Given the situation today, we will not be able to support even a extra car on the roads during peak hour? In this article, I will highlight few of the other problems other than traffic mess to highlight where we are heading.

Need route info before Bus Day

BusPublic Transport

This is from last weekend. Convinced my family to take a Vajra to go across town from Whitefield to Mahalakshmi Layout. I told them don't worry, there are buses (333Z, 335EP, 335T) that go in that direction. We decided we will leave around 10 AM.

Transforming Urban Transportation

Sharing a video from India Economic Summit. Very interesting to note Om Prakash Agarwals introductory comments where he says - We are very good at putting standalone facilities but never have an integrated plan and connection with other related systems. Bangalore has been reliant on a one dimensional Bus system. This cannot scale.
