Hampinagara station has been built so some folks dont have to go to nayandahalli. Would be nice if commuter rail also started so trains can stop here

Finally Bangalore is getting one more railway station on Mysore road.
Looking for Tanisandra Railway station to be reopened and halt station at Devanahalli BIAL Airport trumpet interchange and halt station at Dodballapur Textile park, Hoody behind Shantiniketan Prestige apartment much needed for the people on priority
Above point Applies to Metro Also

Same thing for Bangalore Metro also. Chakra Services should be started around Metro stations too.
As Amith pointed out, I too have ended up in trouble after getting down at around 8:15pm in Kengeri Station waiting till 9:30pm to get a bus to goto Katriguppe. After starting of Kengeri TTMC, things have worsened with most of the buses ending their trips in Kengeri TTMC. Earlier we used to have 501,501A service running, now the route exists, but buses do not run after 7pm. All we see is Kottigepalya buses.
Krishnadevaraya Station should open like a full fledged station and not a 'H' with even express trains stopping here. Also, a prepaid auto counter should be started. This will help lot of people living around Vijaynagar, Girinagar, Avalahalli similar to Satellite Bus Stand. (Ofcourse, satellite bus stand has not got prepaid auto counter).
Stations of no use if there is no last mile connectivity

These stations and CRS is of no use if BMTC does not act and introduce Chakra Services as pointed out by Muralidhar Rao.

@ Amith - Firstly, welcome to Praja.
As to your problem, perhaps you need to bring your fellow commuters together and demand of the BMTC to start Chakra services (feeder) linking the station with the closest Big-10 route. The ultimate answer I'll maintain lies here.
