BIAL Traffic Bangalore magic boxes BDA Junction
Posting this on behalf of Photoyogi, he is at BDA junction right now, watching temporary traffic chaos live as the magic box there has just now been opened to public. First reports indicate that due to lack of clear communication on new traffic routing plan (see this recent post that has the new plan), folks are struggling to find their way around. Please tell your journalist friends to carry the new route map sketched here earlier in tomorrow's papers so that the chaos can ease.
Pictures and more reactions to follow later tonight. Watch this post for updates.
[Updates @ 7:30 pm]
No fancy fanfare It was amids heavy downpour The BDA Junction was informally opened. I use the word Informally cos it was not really inaugurated by some white shirt clad politicians but by the BBMP Commissioner and some Police top brass.
Way to go BBMP! Everyone braved the rain and prayed to God it would work! hehe!
Being an optimist I hope too it works I hope some one reads some of the comments on the traffic flow and takes suitable pointers. Meanwhile here are some much awaited pictures.
As i have pointed out earlier too the road behind Palace Lodge is too narrow that is going to cause issues.
We will probably have more people passing thru this junction tomm after they have read the newspapers. BBMP please do keep a look out the the real airport traffic has not yet started.
