Soon, techies can walk from ITPL Metro station to office

BENGALURU: Thousands of staffers working at firms dotting the International Tech Park Bangalore (IT PB) campus in Whitefield will now have a major incentive to use the Namma Metro for commuting. The Bmrcl has given the nod for a walkway from the IT PL (old name) station to the sprawling campus, said multiple sources. The elevated station on the 15-km Baiyappanahalli- Whitefield Line will provide direct connectivity from the concourse area to the entrance of the campus, which is gearing up for launch by year-end, said a source.
