Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation [BMTC] Complaints & Reviews

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...

There is a lack of buses, suvarna / volvo from
- Rajarajeshwari Nagar towards BTM Layout, Agara, Outer Ring Road
- Rajarajeshwari Nagar towards Jayanagar Ediyur, Gandhi Bazaar, Netkallappa Circle, Ramkrishna Ashrama
Its a good thing to diversify buses to different routes rather than direct all buses to Market and Majestic. Now the buses are all directed towards Banashankari and Kengeri and Uttarhalli. Poornapradnya...

Today I boarded BMTC volvo bus non-AC bearing number KA 01 FA 1728 - 356C at Hosa road junction around 8:00 AM to go upto Ecity Infosys Gate 1. Usually the price would be Rs 8 . Today conductor charged me Rs 12 saying that in that bus the fare is 1.5 times. Also he did not stop at Infosys Gate 1 where there is a proper bus stop.

For what reasons the charge is RS 12 where in AC volvo bus would charge only Rs 10...

Dear Sir/ Madam,
On 5/5/2009 BMTC Bangalore started renewal of passes which are valid for ten months & twelve months. It was done at only one location - Majestic. The Q's were too long as hundreds of people had come to renew their passes with very few counters & there were no seperate Q's for women at one of the counters, this led to miscreants troubling women standing in the Q.

I request on behalf...

Dear Sir / Madam,

This mail is being posted on behalf of all passengers from yelahanka, with the hope that some action is taken against this problem.

The buses that goes to yelahanka old town, does not give proper stop near yelhanka police station circle. If the signal is green, the buses just pass away and stop after the signal near that government college. If the signal is Red, the bus stops only in the signal...

The fares of the big 10 buses vary.
The conductors dont have any idea of what the fares are.
I was charged Rs. 5, Rs 8, and Rs 10, Rs. 8 and Rs. 10 again for the same route
when i travelled on it five times.

Even if they have discarded the original Rs 5, 10 or 15 rupee structure, they
should update the fares on the Bmtc website if they have the right intensions.
Public service is not all about...

This is to inform the officials of the transport system that the quality of the buses plying in the route no 276 is deteriorating. The drivers have off late begun to drive the buses very slowly and it is taking a long time to reach our destination point. This also leads to traffic congestion as they ride in the middle of the road and hence not allowing the other vehicles to move which results in piling up of traffic. This can be freed from...

I have been a resident of Rajarajeshwari Nagar for five years now, and bus services to and fro to the city is pathetic. There are no direct buses to the Central Business District - one has to go via KR Market or Majestic all the time, which eats up time, and makes a 45-minute journey into a 1.5 hour journey.

Especially in the evening from Richmond Circle, I request BMTC to put more buses to Rajarajeshwari Nagar. At present,...

Sir,

On 3rd April, 2009 I boarded BMTC bus #314, Reg #KA 01 F -1768 from Kodihalli to Trinity Circle at around 11am. For the ticket fare of Rs. 9, I gave him Rs. 100 to the conductor since I did not have the exact change. The conductor replied that he will return the remaining amount before getting down from the bus without mentioning the remaining amount on the ticket. The stop before the trinity circle I asked for the balance...

Bus number KA 01 FA 1334, an air suspension bus from Marathahalli to Majestic did not stop at the bus stop of Richmond Circle despite three women wanting to get down. He then again did not stop around the signal at the actual circle itself. When all three women asked him to stop, he just looked angrily and continued. He finally decided to stop at the Mallya hospital. I have recently undergone a surgery and have been specifically asked to...

This is regarding the bus timings.
To HAL buses normally reach in Madiwala around 5.30 pm every day. But i found that last 15 to 20 days there is no buses that particular time( around 5.30 pm to HAL) Please look in to this....

Sir,
On Cubban Road, near Parade Grounds there is one Bus stop to proceed towards Shivajinagar,
similarly on Bus Stop is required on the opposite lane for the buses coming from Shivajinagar
for people travelling towards HAL/K.R.Puram/Alsoor/Indiranagar etc.The next obligatory bus stop is near Manipal Center at the end of the Cubbar Road, which is too far.Please arrange urgently.
Thanks
