I intend attending this event. Anyone else interested ?

Dear All,
  Hope many of you make it to this talk, otherwise we can arrange one for praja and other citizen forums interested.

  I had met Ms.Sumitra Iyengar, Director of Scomi Geodesic, the agency involved in this project.
  I did discuss about some alignement issues in South Bangalore and project details.
  They are open to suggestions from public and would be ready to arrange presentation/discussions with citizen forums.
 
  Also got to know from Prof. Srihari about recent meeting, that ABide members were eager to fast track work on monorail corridors.

Regards,
Bharat Sagar

Mono for South Bangalore

The Scomi Geodesic plan looks good for the inner city but there is a gaping hole (well gap actually) in the South Bangalore. Bannerghatta road which has a huge residential and office population would greatly benefit from a mono rail either linking it to Metro at say Jaya Nagar or to the Scomi Geodesic's Mono at Diary Circle. If you see the catchment area there is huge gap for Bannerghatta road with Metro off west along Kanakpura Road and if at all things happen the Metro Phase 2 or 3 along the Hosur Road for Electronic city. Would anyone be raising this with the team ?

South Bangalore

I think Metro ph-2 is covering this (EC to Yelahanka via NICE Rd, Bannerghatta rd, onwards to north), hence the exclusion from Mono routes.

Confirm me
