BMRCL Ph II DPR route?

158

Written By srinidhi - 11 March, 2010

Bangalore Namma Metro Analysis itpl Transportation public transport BMRCL Metro Rail Phase2

Naveen presented a good summary of his meeting with BMRCL

One thing that came of that was the DPR for the phase II was in the final stages and would be out soon..there are already questions on

  • What is the level of public participation in the proposed routes
  • Information on nputs that went to decide the routes by DMRCL.
  • Any traffic studies that were used

However the route based on the soil testing done is as below:

Kattariguppe - ITPL route

Kattariguppe - PES college(srinagar) - Basavanagudi(crosses reach 4) - SJP park - Corporation bldg - Richmond rd - Vellara jn - Domlur - Old Airport - SuranjanDas rd - Byappanahalli - KR puram RS - Mahadevpura - ITPL

IIMB - Nagavara route

IIMB - Jayadeva Hospital - Dairy circle - Vellara Jn - Shivajinagar - Tannery rd - Nagavara

I have tried to mark the ph II route on a bangalore map..

Is this a fairly accurate? and what do we feel of this plan itself?

DPR's final..

srinidhi - 16 June, 2012 - 00:57

As far as how BMRCL has taken up the metro work since the begining is that the DPR done by Delhi Metro is their bible and they will do everything needed to stick to that..ofcourse small chages like stations additions have been done at the behest of other forces..

I am not sure you can get legal advice here on praja and BMRCL doesnt respond to RTI's..so think the best way is to approach the state govt..meet Ananth Kumar or someone sitting high to help..

One option is to get them going underground for the stretch from Rajlakshmi to Silk Board..guess that will help in lot manyways, including sparing many homes to be brought down..and crossing over edifices like Jayadeva flyover..

The other option is do the jaipur way..having a road carriage way along with the metro line..like below:

@Srinidhi, thank you for your valued inputs. Now we have the Jayanagar Residents Association involved in this and preparing a paln of action to make our joint representation through this association, addressed to Metro MD, and all the relevent Govt Admenstrative office and political members in seat.

As we understand that this is still not finalized (not reached the Land Aquasition department)  and high level meeting at Delhi is pending for approval, see a ray of hope that some changes can be considered before its finalized. more over last information from Metro office was that there are possible alternatives considered.

So hoping for the best in order to save our Homes, parks and many trees.

Regards

Sathya 

Lalbagh may be spared

they will encroach on Lalbaugh more now

I believe the route is intended to commence at RV terminal for EC - Lalbagh may not be effected.

BMLTA map on phase II

@srinidhi :   Your map is fairly accurate enough...A good one is available on BMLTA 's website based on CTTP

http://map.bmlta.org/map.html

The BMLTA map extends the lines all the way from suranjan das road-Airport junction till whitefield and looping back to ITPL.

And also the Kathriguppe line, cuts/joins the phase-1 E-W line at Deepanjali Nagar making the entire line almost a circle.

Metro Phase 2 at 5th main, 5th block, 40th Cross, Jayanagar

Hello All,

I am new here and trying to get information on the status of Metro alignment turning left at Rajalaxmi Kalyana Mantap Junction leading to Silk board.

I am one of the residents among the 16 houses effected under thier proposed alignment, cutting through my house (4th house from the corner. From the information we have as on yesterday is that six houses on 5th main road, 4-6 houses on the 6th ain road and 2-3 houses on the 46th cross is confirmed to be part of their plan.

Markings in blue color with Pier no has been done all through the park leading to my property . Unfortunatly no confirmation from BMRCL as yet, apart from survey engineers orally confirming that its been finalized.

We (16 residents) have submitted a representative letter Dt.17th May 2012 to the Managing Director seeking confirmation with possible multiple options which can save all the houses, sadly no response.

Seek advice on how do we take this forward, either to get required confirmation or to seek information on possible alternatives that can be considered.

Most of the residents are retired and staying here from 40-50 years with joint familites (2-3 families) under one roof. Componsation I hear is on SR guidance value, all of us are confused and worried as to what will happen.

Requesting people in this forum to advice on how do we take this forward towards saving our homes, planned to gather all the affected residents on the 17th Sunday to chalk out our plan of action.

- RTI for required information,

- Sound advocate who can represent all of us,

- Follow up second letter of representation to the MD, BMRCL to look into possible options leading to saving our homes. 

Eagerly look forward for comments / advice 

Have a nice day.

Warm Regards

SK
