An Alternative: BMTC to operate special bus services for Aero India show

BENGALURU: As it is expected that Aero India shows 2019 will be blocking the congested Hebbal and Bellary Road from 20 to 24 of February, the Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) has made plans of alternatives by operating additional buses to and from Yelahanka Airforce Station.

The officials of the BMTC have announced that additional buses belonging to the various parts of the city from 8 AM onwards will be operated to help people who are attending the flying display (10 AM to 2 PM) from February 23 to 24.

Special services are said to be operated from Kempegowda Bus Station, MG Road Metro Station, HSR Layout, HAL Kalyana Mantapa, Banashankari TTMC, Kengeri TTMC, Peenya 2nd Stage, Central Silk Board, Tin Factory, Yeshwantpur TTMC, and Hebbal. With fares ranging from Rs 40 to Rs 50 per passenger.

BMTC officials have also urged people to make use of the parking facilities at Yeshwantpur TTMC, Shantinagar TTMC, Jayanagar TTMC, Koramangala TTMC, and other TTMCs by parking their private vehicles and to travel in BMTC buses.
