Signs for Proposed Bus Stops that have sprung around the city 09/02/08 16:22 - ashwin
In most places, these are next to existing bus shelters. There seems to be a connection with the Airport bus service as these signs are often next to the sing announcing the frequency of the BIAS routes, like in the photo (the existing bus shelter was behind me as I took the photo). person ashwin's post | forum 3 Comments | Read More

Chronology of a Project - Anjaneya Temple Flyover 09/02/08 15:57 - Ravi_D

Cab Drivers can be called as 'insects' of Bangalore traffic. The kind of people who drive the Indicas and Sumos are usually 'bad mannered' and 'ready to fight' type of people. Autos are one type, but, since they are not as powerful as the cabs, they are 'bit better' than these cabs (comparison among the worst). These cab drivers behave as if they are pilots of Jet planes and saving the country!! person Vasanth's post | Read More |
