No buses from Yelahanka touching the ring road

Dear Sir,

There are absolutely no bus services available from Yelahanka to Banaswadi/K.R. Puram/Marathahalli/Whitefield or anywhere touching the ring road. Also, Hebbal bus stop, where the road touches the ring road is far away from the ring road, courtesy the flyover.

Will the BMTC provide a direct bus service from Yelahanka to, say Marathahalli or Banaswadi or Ramamurthy Nagar crossing etc, so that it is easy for people, especially the Software Engineers to travel to places like ITPL and Electronic City etc etc?

290's and 291's will help only people coming from yelahanka. There are many students coming from GKVK and nearby places to Banaswadi. There are no buses from GKVK to Banaswadi or K.R.Puram. They have to come to hebbal, walk to hebbal bridge, cross the notorious railway line, and board the bus to K.R.Puram. It's high time to have a bus route like K.R.Puram->Ramamurthy Nagar->Hebbal->GKVK->Yelahanka. Will BMTC able to provide such route?

290E has a very long route, and 291D/K service is extremely poor. They won't suffice.
Moreover, the route followed is very unfamiliar.

yes this is a common complaint among people, its hard to travel from banaswadi to yelahanka and vice versa, we need a bus travelling from kr puram -> r m nagar -> banaswadi (ring road) -> hebbal -> gkvk -> allalsandra -> and then yelahanka. . there are buses to yelahanka from banashankari but they are again long routes which divert at hennur signal and go via some poor improper roads and takes a lot of time to reach yelhanka, and it does nt hit any gkvk, hebbal or allalsandra also. .

Dear Sir,

I have read most of the comments & i wish to post the comment for the people who are located in Yelahanka doddaballapur road towards Ramanashree california resort, most of the buses ply from Yelahanka new town ( local BMTC Buses) & hardly few buses ply from the following point mentioned above there are more apartments which has come up, due to the non availability of volvo buses the public/students/engineers who has to travel towards hebbal / banaswadi / Ramamurthy nagar / K.R Puram / White field are using their own means of transport, atleast one bus is introduced towards this routes starting from Ramanashree will help most of the commuters.

If you have a concern about the under utilization, Then atleast 2 trips in the morning & 2 trips in the evening can be the option for a trial run for a month to decide to ply the route,

Suggestable timings could be reaching white field by 08:00am & 09:00am & evening 05:00pm & 06:00pm starting from white field.

The reason for suggesting the above timings are most of the Software engineers in white field have the working timings starting from 08:00am To 05:00am & 09:00am to 06:00pm in worst case most of the people will be using BMTC bus services to beat the traffic congestion in the morning & aswel in the evening.

Thanks & Regards
Yogesh
