Byappanahalli near NGEF junction, Old Madras Road - amazing infrastructure developments


Noticed big constructions near NGEF junction in Old Madras road,Bangalore? Trying to ease traffic congestion in the city, the Bengaluru Metropolitan Land Transport Authority (BMLTA) has announced integrated terminals at Majestic and Byappanahalli where the Namma Metro, Indian Railways, BMTC and KSRTC systems would be integrated at one place.


Byappanahalli Railway station (Indian South Western Railways)
Bangalore railway station "Byappanahalli" is to be among 16 biggest and showcase railways stations planned in India.It is adjacent to NGEF, Old Madras Road and near to Indiranagar,Bangalore. Indian South-Western(SW) Railways is constructing a world class railway station that can handle 
  • around 5 lakh passengers every day at Byappanahalli
  • capacity to handle around 100 pairs of trains.


    Currently, Bangalore city railway station is the biggest railway station in the city and it can handle around 1.5 lakh passengers every day. Both Yeshwantpur and Bangalore City railway stations are handling more passenger traffic than their capacity. On an average, 8 new trains are introduced to the city every year and the new railway station is expected to meet the needs of the city for say, another 15 years!


    Byappanahalli railway station will be designed to become a nodal point to be easily connected to all the major railway routes in the region. There are reported plans and ongoing construction to provide easy access to the other modes of transport like BMTC and Metro for the passengers from the railway station. Also provisions are planned to connect both Yeshwantpur and Bangalore City railway stations from the new railway station.

    Byappanahalli, which was not so famous station once upon a time, is going to be a major stop in ‘Namma Metro’. This station acted as a junction for goods trains which used to divert to the goods yard at Banaswadi. With ‘Namma Metro’ it is going to be a very spacious metro train terminus in addition to the existing railway station.Byappanahalli station would have multifunctional facilities which include shopping facilities, medical shops, budget shops, cyber cafe and all required facilities.Picture courtesy:BMRCL.

    traffic integration area of BMTC and KSRTC terminals with escalators, stairways and lifts.

    KSRTC Buses plying towards Kolar and other eastern parts will ply from this terminus. BMTC will run feeder services.


    Keep a watch on the unstoppable progress in real estate development

    When we look for apartments in cities all over the world with well connected metro/tube trains, real estate and rental prices are at the highest for sites with easy access to the stations. Just imagine what is in store for these localities within few years! 

    Amazing development of the locality is in line with Byappanahalli railway station, BMRCL and KSRTC.Have a watch on the progress and real estate prices in few years! Close the deals if you are planning any purchases here.
