It took forever – may be 5 years?
But finally – this coming Saturday – May 25th 2023 – Metro is going to be thrown open at Whitefield.
From Kadugodi to KR Puram. The critical KR Puram to Byappanahalli will take June/July – but I am ok to wait – we have waited all these years.
Every time I go to Dubai I will be jealous of their Metro System.
In December I was there for 10 days – and not once I took taxi. Did go around a bit – we even went to the Dubai Library – it was a long walk from Metro station though.
Now – soon – things will be the same here.
For the nearest Metro station – SAP labs – I have to do a 900m walk, then take a bus – 335E and 500 series – 4 stops. Then I can go anywhere in Bangalore.
Just love this freedom – and guilt free travel – without polluting too much nor adding to the traffic woes of Bangalore.
Come March 27th – Monday – I will go to office in Metro – for the first time in India. Have done it in Chicago ( not metro exactly – it was a suburban train ), and in Dubai.
Me happy!
