Bangalore Traffic Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir,

As a resident of Shanti Nagar, Bangalore-560027 ( Off- K.H.Road-Double Road), I have two points to make and I am sure all residents of Shanti Nagar, Langford Town, Nanjappa Circle, Richmond Town residents will readily share with me.

(1) Two of the city buses run by BMTC ( Route # 164 and # 163 E) enter into Langford Road, coming opposite the one way traffic of Langford road coming from Hosur Rd turning left at Military Police School signal Elgin Building). The entire traffic ( most of the time 8 to 9 vehicle abreast) would be standing at the said signal and the buses come head on with headlights on throughout the day and night creating havoc while they are headed towards Nanjappa Circle. Is this not an avoidable confusion Sir ???

(2) Again on Langford Road... at the crossing of 5th Cross of Shanti Nagar which cuts across Langford Road ( near Divya Shree building--CISCO etc)the traffic confusion is so bad, that I would say that is the most dangerous crossing in Bangalore...especially considering the unruly way drivers of both four wheelers and two wheelers try to "cut" each other. This too is an avoidable confusion by installing a signal. By the way Bangalorean Drivers DO NOT UNDERSTNAD THE meaning of blinking amber ( installed at the said crossing and other places too ) lights at all !!!
