BHPian ![]() | ![]() Did anyone else experience less than normal traffic on their work this morning? I leaft at my usual time of 9 AM and was surprised to see quite less traffic at Sevanagar and also on Queen's road. |

| ![]() I didn't. Experienced the usual density from south Blr to Indian express. Although, a few may have taken today off to make it a 4 day weekend. |

https://maps.google.co.in/maps?saddr...via=1&t=m&z=12 I use ORR until Iblur flyover, and then use this route to avoid Marathahalli/Kundalahalli/Cosmos mall chaos. It is saving me 30 minutes daily (one way), on average. Night times, this stretch can get pretty deserted so I would suggest you to avoid it after 8pm or thereabouts, not too safe. ORR is better at those times. EDIT : Sorry I misread your post as Bangalore Central mall (and I assumed it was Jayanagar one), my bad. Apologies for the wrong link. This would be your correct route from Bellandur Central mall to ITPL: https://maps.google.co.in/maps?saddr...via=1&t=m&z=12 Last edited by KarthikK : 24th January 2013 at 18:53. | |

![]() 80% of the time it will save you time for sure but you need to be prepared for bad times. | |

Taking this route before meetings is a total gamble and reminds me of the dialogue - "Haar ke jeetne wale ko Baazigar kehte hain". ![]() Same is the stretch of road which people take after taking U-Turn from the ISRO junction. There is a railway crossing there, and if the gates are closed, then you are doomed there forever in a never ending jam. ![]() Last Tuesday, our company bus took this route and choked the road with a long line of poor vehicles behind it. | |

| ![]() Was anyone else stuck in the mayhem at Marathahalli bridge sometime around 10 PM last night? I took a bus from the borewell bus stop (HAL helicopter division) at 9:40 PM and I was only able to reach the Marathahalli bridge by 11 PM (that's hardly a 2 km distance). Looked like a bus had broken down in the middle of the bridge. |

You didn't consider getting off the bus and walking? As you say, it is hardly 2 km. | |

| ![]() Roadhumps seems to have come out pf nowhere in Basavanagudi area yesterday. One in front of Vijaya High School, one on BP Wadia road and the hump in front of Basavanagudi Police Station seems to have grown twice its size overnight. The hump in front of Vijaya high school did not have any marker on it and I saw a car fly over it this morning on my way to work . Luckily the guy controlled the car and missed the median by inches. |

| ![]() Car owners who sport 'provocative' stickers on their rides, beware. Bangalore police could soon be at your heels! ![]() Even a common 'no fear' sticker was removed! This incident could lead to a lot of debates! |

| ![]() The Kadubesanahalli underpass (towards Marathahalli) has got a new layer of tar. As a result the uneven concrete section in the middle has now been tarred and the hump in the middle of the underpass has been removed. |
