ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು: ಮೆಜೆಸ್ಟಿಕ್‌-ಏರ್‌ಪೋರ್ಟ್‌ ರೈಲು ಮಾರ್ಗ ನೆನೆಗುದಿಗೆ

The Bangalore Suburban Railway project, particularly the ‘Sampige’ corridor connecting Majestic to the Kempegowda International Airport, is facing delays. While the ‘Mallige’ corridor between Baiyappanahalli and Chikkabanavara is underway, the tender process for the ‘Sampige’ corridor has been slow, causing dissatisfaction among transportation experts. The ‘Sampige’ corridor was initially prioritized by...

the central government for its crucial role in connecting the airport, expecting it to be completed within three years, compared to six years for other corridors. Despite the urgent need for this connection, the state government is focusing on the ‘Mallige’ corridor. The ‘Sampige’ corridor is vital due to the increasing traffic to the airport, which is expected to reach 4-5 lakh passengers in the next few years. While a 58 km metro line connecting the airport will be completed by 2027, it will only serve 25% of the city, highlighting the importance of the suburban railway. Transportation experts emphasize the need to accelerate the ‘Sampige’ corridor project and suggest starting the ground-level work between Yeshwanthpur and Lottegollahalli, prioritizing the project’s completion within three years. They also point out the lack of a full-time managing director and the absence of continuous monitoring by the government as contributing factors to the delay. The project faces challenges with land acquisition but can be addressed through separate tenders for the ground-level work in Lottegollahalli, Yelahanka, and Devanahalli. The ‘Sampige’ corridor is the first of the suburban railway corridors, covering 41.4 km with an estimated cost of ₹5060 crore. It includes 8 elevated and 7 ground-level stations, connecting various locations including KSR Bangalore, Srirampura, Malleshwaram, Yeshwanthpur, Mathikere, Lottegollahalli, Kodigehally, Judicial Layout, Yelahanka, Nitte Meenakshi, Bettahalaasuru, Doddajala, Airport Trumpet, Airport Terminal, Airport KIADB, and Devanahalli.

Bangalore ka Suburban Railway project, khass karke 'Sampige' corridor jo Majestic se Kempegowda International Airport connect karta hai, bahut delay ho raha hai. 'Mallige' corridor, Baiyappanahalli se Chikkabanavara tak, chal raha hai, par 'Sampige' corridor ka tender process bahut slow hai, jisse transport experts bahut upset hain. 'Sampige' corridor ko pehle...

hi central government ne priority diya tha, kyunki yeh airport connect karta hai aur unka expect tha ki yeh 3 saal mein complete ho jayega, jabki dusre corridors ke liye 6 saal diya gaya tha. Is important connection ki urgent zaroorat ke baavajood, state government 'Mallige' corridor pe focus kar raha hai. 'Sampige' corridor bahut important hai kyunki airport ka traffic bahut badh raha hai, aur aage aane wale 4-5 saal mein 4-5 lakh passengers aa jayenge. 2027 tak, airport connect karne wala 58 km ka metro line complete ho jayega, par yeh city ka sirf 25% hi serve karega, isse suburban railway ki importance samjh aati hai. Transport experts 'Sampige' corridor project ko jaldi complete karne ka zor dete hain aur suggest karte hain ki Yeshwanthpur aur Lottegollahalli ke beech ground level ka kaam pehle shuru kiya jaaye, aur project ko 3 saal mein complete karne ki priority di jaaye. Unhone yeh bhi bataya hai ki managing director ka full time nahi hona aur government ki continuous monitoring ka na hona bhi delay ka ek reason hai. Project ko land acquisition ki wajah se challenges aarahi hai par yeh challenge Lottegollahalli, Yelahanka aur Devanahalli mein ground level ka kaam alag alag tenders ke through karke solve kiya ja sakta hai. 'Sampige' corridor suburban railway ka pehla corridor hai, yeh 41.4 km lamba hai aur iski estimated cost ₹5060 crore hai. Isme 8 elevated aur 7 ground level stations hain, yeh KSR Bangalore, Srirampura, Malleshwaram, Yeshwanthpur, Mathikere, Lottegollahalli, Kodigehally, Judicial Layout, Yelahanka, Nitte Meenakshi, Bettahalaasuru, Doddajala, Airport Trumpet, Airport Terminal, Airport KIADB aur Devanahalli ko connect karta hai.

Air traveller will not fully depend on BMTC vayu vajra while flying out in intermediate busstops, only the one who has lot of leisure time. Air travellers mostly take BMTC to reach home and business travellers and official trips take ola/Uber as they get refund. You can't expect South and West to come to BNC. They should be separate trains from Whitefield, Kengeri via Central Yesvantpur and BNC every hour.

If there are dedicated hourly trains, people can take such services.
While I agree that south (Jayanagar JP Nagar BTM etc) may not like to go via BNC, Koramangala /Sarjapur road/ HSR can travel to BNC if direct buses are there. Now not even a single bus is there from these areas to Cantonment station. Similarly, west (Rajaji nagar/ Vijaya nagar/ Kengeri) like to go via SBC instead of via BNC.
Malleshwaram, Yeshwantpura, Sadashiv nagar people will not come to BNC.
What...

is the point of running few services from BNC? Just to say that we have done our part and now it is upto public to utilise them or not?
