Bengaluru: Intermodal Transit Hubs
Intermodal Transit Hubs, proposed on multiple occasions by multiple agencies for Bengaluru, have not seen the light of day. However, it is felt that a well-funded and empowered Unified Metropolitan Transport Authority (UMTA) could make these a reality.
The State Government, in its 2019-20 budget, had proposed six such hubs in Hebbal, K R Puram, Challaghatta, Peenya, Baiyappanahalli and Kadugodi. The Directorate of Urban Land Transport (DULT) had also identified eight hubs: Baiyappanahalli Metro terminal and K R Puram; Ballari Road and Peripheral Ring Road (PRR) Junction; Challaghatta – Mysuru Road; Old Madras Road and PRR Junction; Kadugodi; Challaghatta – Mysuru Road; BMTC Terminal, Peenya and BMRCL land in Bommasandra.
