The recommended Metro transit
corridor (in Phase-2) to Whitefield is shown passing along the existing
Airport road straight east towards Varthur, thence northwards towards
Whitefield Commuter railway station. Thus, the more developed areas in
Whitefield, where most tech companies, businesses & high-rise
residences are situated, are not covered. It may be far more functional
if this route could turn left at Karunashraya & pass through
Kundalahalli cross, turn right opposite Graphite India & pass
through KIADB area, ITPL & Kadugodi before aligning with Whitefield
road. There are no direct mass-transit routes otherwise recommended to
these points in the CTTP, & a TTMC proposed at ITPL may not help as
commuters would need to interchange modes. Quality seeking
professionals, who are sensitive to traffic delays, detest
inconveniences such as transfers, any time penalty that usually cannot
be avoided when changing modes & who generally use private
vehicles, commute daily to these areas, & will also start
preferring the Metro with the convenience of this realignment &
direct connectivity. An additional rapid bus corridor can be arranged
from Marathalli /Karunashraya to Whitefield CR station via the broad
Varthur road to fill the gap there as a result of this re-alignment, if
volumes justify the need.
