With the increasing traffic congestion, and the failed plan of the BMTC to have shuttle buses in HSR Layout due to lack of proper planning, the residents are now asking the transport department why all the buses plying between Sarjapur Road and Whitefield don’t enter HSR Layout.
If this happens, people will find it more convenient to use public transport. Clearly, the BMTC needs to have the right people to plan bus stops in strategic places where most people will find it convenient.
Says Sharad Holani and echoed by the Whitefield Rising group: “Why are there no buses going inside HSR Layout and Sarjapura. All buses on Outer Ring Road only go straight towards Silk Board. Why will people use buses when they don’t go anywhere near people’s home?” Tweeting this to the BMTC, he is only one of the many people who have knocked on the doors of the BMTC for efficient public transport.
