Namma Metro Phase 2 Soil Testing
Written By Vasanth - 10 June, 2009
Bangalore Namma Metro Citizen Reports BMRC Transportation public transport Metro Rail Phase2
Today morning I saw soil testing of Namma Metro Phase 2 in Bank Colony near Udupi Upahar hotel. Boards had written "namma metro phase 2 soil testing".
We didn't hear anywhere officially about the alignment of Phase 2 Namma Metro. Surprised to see this!!
I heard the second phase Metro between Kattriguppe to ITPL and Electronic City to Yelahanka. Any updates on soil testing near Electronic City ?

I saw the testing site too yesterday..it read DPR for phase II..no idea what the delhi metro guys are doing!

I observed geo-technical survey going on near shivajinagar bus stop....
From DMRC webiste only call for tenders for geo-technical survey is availabe.
If we can locate all the places were soil survery is being done, we approximate phase 2 route....else wait a month or two for DPR.
Extend the route from bypannahalli-ITPL-Whitefield
From Yelahank-Nagwara-Tannery road-Frazer town-shivajinagar-MG road junction-hosur road-electronic city( this may include phase3 also)

Guess its a totally different routes they are trying to chart out with the monorail plan!
The tanisandra/hennur road looks connected with commuter rail instead of monorail in the CTTP plan..
