Metro Ph-1 Integration issues progressing slowly

4 works connecting to B'lore Metro once completed will bring big relief &will increase metro ridership
1. FOB at BMTC Mejestic
2. Extending Platform at Baiyappanhalli for intercity train
3. Skywalk at City station
4. 3rd entry from Gubbi Tontadappa road

Multi Modal Integration : Metro, Railways, BMTC & Foot paths

As we have seen Ph-1 of Metro open to public without any consideration  for multimodal integration,  other end slowly suburban rail taking traction,  People are using over crowded Metro with poor integration  to change over from one mode of publci transport system to other.

Even we do not have single mobility card for Bangalore urban transport.

Cantonment Metro Station new location as per BMRC deciison, whose interest BMRC is serving

New location of Cantonment metro station wil lraise more question then to satisfy the justification :

Advantages of having Metro station infront of Cantonment station :

1.  Multi modal integration  will be missed between Railway, Suburban Rail, Metro, BMTC , Auto, taxi and  accessacibility

Bangalore Commuter Rail / Suburban Rail : GOK and GOI equally responsibile for not implementing

GOK is not serious on suburban rail by looking at last 7-8 yrs progress on suburban rail.  DPR  is pending & No follow ups from GOK with Railway Officials.

Why Bangalore Commuter Rail / Suburban Ril does get any importance by Railwy Minister

In the budget 2017-18,  Bangalore Suburban Rail did not get any funds to kick start.

Why CM of Karnataka is keeping quite on these type of developments

“Social Service Obligations” by Indian Railways

Well ANalysed by the authors.

Now Railway AC fares are higher then even the AC Bus Fares.  

So accounting does not help for the market dynamics and this need to be under stood by Railway Minister.

Accounting is number game and  efficiency is Engineering skill,  Wastage  is Corruption  in Indian Railways.

How Karnataka Govt has slept on Commuter Rail report for last 4 years, now people pay the price

Good opportuniy missed by the bad leadership at Karnataka Govt.  and Elected representatives on Commuter Rail / Suburban Rail.  Will Any heads roll for this mess  in karnataka :

Demand Chief Minister of Karnataka and Raiwlay Minister to implement Bangalore Suburban Rail Services

More then 6 years, this project is hanging at both GOK and Railway Minister side.  Both of them have no interest  / seriousness to implement the suburban rail bangalore except  balming each other and making reports.

Already Bangalore people have suffered  and  will not have any big relief  for next 10 years also.
