The integrations serves a big catchment area

-
Bagmane Tech Park ~ 2 kms -
RMZ Infinity ~ 1 kms -
Easy connectivity and change over for passengers on Whitefield-SBC line and beyond. -
Huge residential area on OMR axis

Amongst all the stations, BYPL is the best integrated station

apart YPR to other PT. BYPL is closest to high density BMTC route as well.

See the map - potential for integration of various PT

The Banaswadi station is 14 Kilometers away from the previous station (Belandur Road). If the trains can take the detour given in Green, there is another station at 10 Kms, additionally it helps in seemless integration with other Railway routes, Metro & High density BMTC Routes

Implementation within realm of possibility

Thanks ramesh_mbabu
I dont know about the green re-routing, but your earlier idea of tweaking YPR-ANEKL route should be easily possible and like you said, the huge catchment area means many will be able to use the service and take pressure off other infrastructure.
This suggestion can be pushed forward for early implementation and can be test bed for other routes.

I remember part of these green line getting used by train from YPR and bound to Chennai. The SWR folks objects the re-routing citing a signalling/cross-over issue. If that is right, it should have been applicable to the YPR-Chennai trains as well.
