Silk Board battered. BMTC passengers offloaded mid-traffic. With rains... already hitting parts of the city, it may take 2–3 days for water to recede. Lakes are full. So are drains. If it rains tonight, God help #Bengaluru. #BengaluruRains #SilkBoardshow more

Ikkada road undali kada saar...! This is Bengaluru’s Silk... Board after last night’s heavy rain. The entire stretch turned into what looked more like a swimming pool than one of the city’s busiest junctions. Even the newly constructed metro station area was completely waterlogged, raising serious concerns about Bengaluru’s infrastructure and drainage planning. Vehicles were struggling to move through the flooded roads while commuters were left stranded in traffic chaos. Despite massive development projects and ongoing metro construction, the city continues to face the same flooding issues every monsoon. Roads disappearing under water has now become a regular scene in Bengaluru whenever heavy rain hits the city. It is shocking to see such severe waterlogging around a newly built metro corridor that was supposed to improve urban mobility and infrastructure. Citizens are once again questioning how crores are being spent on development while basic drainage problems remain unsolved. Silk Board, already infamous for traffic congestion, now turns into a swimming pool every time it rains heavily. #bangalore #bengaluru #bengalururains #silkboard Maheshwar Rao.M, IAS Greater Bengaluru Authority ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್‌ BengaluruCityPolice ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಸಂಚಾರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ BengaluruTrafficPolice ನಮ್ಮ ಮೆಟ್ರೋ DK Shivakumar S.

Silk Board 2.0? New Flyover Risks Becoming Next Traffic... Hotspot Traffic management in Bengaluru is becoming increasingly difficult despite big infrastructure projects. The recently opened double-decker flyover was expected to ease congestion, but within days, traffic has already started building up again. This raises a serious concern are we actually solving the problem or just shifting it? For years Silk board Junction, has been a symbol of endless traffic. Now, even with new developments, the situation risks repeating itself. If such congestion continues, future plans like tunnel roads could become even more problematic, with the danger of vehicles getting stuck inside enclosed spaces during peak hours. Bengaluru doesn’t just need bigger projects it needs smarter solutions. Improving public transport, enforcing traffic rules, introducing intelligent signal systems, and promoting staggered office hours can make a real difference. Without proper planning and accountability, even the biggest projects will fail, and new roads will only add to the city’s growing traffic crisis. #bangalore #bengaluru #traffic #doubledecker #silkboard ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್‌ BengaluruCityPolice ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಸಂಚಾರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ BengaluruTrafficPolice CP Bengaluru ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ಆಯುಕ್ತ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು Joint CP, Traffic, Bengaluru alok kumar DGP KARNATAKA ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ Karnataka State Police S.

Who is responsible for this waterlogging? Is it the... public, who faithfully pay their taxes on time? Is it the rain, which has the audacity to arrive every year as usual? Or is it the municipal corporation, which somehow gets surprised every monsoon and forgets that drains are meant to be cleaned? The answer is obvious. The suffering is faced not by those responsible, but by the common people stranded on flooded roads, stuck in traffic, and paying the price for official negligence. #bangalore #bengaluru #bengalururains #rainsshow more

Probably the first of its kind in India. An... unofficial BMTC bus stop on a flyover at Manyata, complete with a dedicated lane for those to walk on the flyover. So if you are driving, be careful. A BMTC bus may suddenly stop in front of you. If you are a passenger, be careful. Vehicles may be cruising past while you board or deboard. Innovation or disaster? We think it’s a shortcut for Disaster. ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಸಂಚಾರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ BengaluruTrafficPolice Joint CP, Traffic, Bengaluru Is this officially recognised as a bus stop on a flyover? If yes, thanks for redefining road safety.show more

At Paradise Signal in Hyderabad, a young woman pleaded... with the driver of TSRTC bus TG 10 T2206 (route 10H) to open the door in the rain. Other passengers also requested it, but the driver used rude language and refused. Even the female conductor did not help. The driver was even hurling bad words at her. Why are they so rude? Public transport should treat passengers with respect and humanity. In contrast, BMTC drivers in Bengaluru are often praised for helping passengers—stopping even in heavy rain to pick up stranded people.show more

🌺🌺 Disaster by #HyderabadRains to our city - #Liveability... affected! This is in #HitechCity #Hyderabad near #DurgamCheruvu For 5 years, there used to be a problem of water clogging for 1 hour, during rains and then it goes off - people can atleast walk in sideways then. After an intervention by #GHMC, a solution was put in place. Construction for this was for 1 year or 2 years or more. People waited though it was an inconvenience! Now, today with the rains, it became much worse. Water clogging is super increased and problem aggravated. Pls see video. Impact to lives are huge - economical, liveability, health, hygiene, various other movement problems and more inconvenience. Such a failure project and scene!

The traffic situation in Bengaluru has reached a point... that is nothing short of insane. It seems almost as if traffic jams are being created humanly, simply due to ignorance and lack of traffic sense. One recurring problem is the behavior of the 500CA buses near Jeevika Hospital, where frequent U-turns disrupt the flow of traffic, causing unnecessary congestion on an already busy stretch. A practical solution would be to stop these buses from making U-turns at Jeevika Hospital and instead divert them via the service road onto the Marathahalli bridge, continuing towards Kunhalli. Such a small change in traffic management could significantly reduce jams, improve commuter experience, and make daily travel less stressful for thousands of motorists. It’s high time that small yet effective measures like this are implemented to restore some sanity to Bengaluru’s roads. #bangalore #bengaluru #orr #marathahalli Greater Bengaluru Authority Maheshwar Rao.M, IAS ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್‌ BengaluruCityPolice ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಸಂಚಾರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ BengaluruTrafficPolice CP Bengaluru ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ಆಯುಕ್ತ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು Joint CP, Traffic, Bengaluru alok kumar DGP KARNATAKA ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ Karnataka State Police S.

Flight Queue on Kempegowda international airport Runway Gives Passengers... a ‘Traffic Jam’ Déjà Vu Peak Bengaluru moment! After facing endless traffic jams on the city’s roads, now the runway at has started to mirror the same chaos. A long queue of flights was seen lined up one after another, waiting for their turn to take off almost like vehicles stuck at a traffic signal.Passengers onboard even joked and thought it was a “runway traffic jam,” as multiple aircraft were standing still in a line. But in reality, this is not an actual traffic jam it’s a routine holding pattern where flights are cleared for takeoff one after another.Still, the sight of planes piling up on the runway perfectly captures the “Peak Bengaluru” vibe where traffic seems to follow you, whether you’re on the road or in the sky #bengaluru #bangalore #kempegowdairport #bangaloreairport BLR Airport ATC Blog ✈ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ನಗರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್‌ BengaluruCityPolice ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು ಸಂಚಾರ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ BengaluruTrafficPolice CP Bengaluru ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ಆಯುಕ್ತ ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು Joint CP, Traffic, Bengaluru alok kumar DGP KARNATAKA ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ Karnataka State Police S.

Long Weekend Escape? Bengaluru Crowd Turns Agumbe Ghat Into... 4-Hour Traffic Festival This is the scene at Agumbe Ghat when people from Bengaluru head out to “enjoy” their long weekend only to end up stuck in traffic for 3–4 hours straight. What was supposed to be a peaceful getaway into nature turns into an extended parking session on a hill road. Instead of exploring scenic views, breathing fresh air, and relaxing, people are treated to a premium experience of bumper-to-bumper traffic, honking symphonies, and slow-motion driving from one curve to the next. Ironically, the only thing moving faster than the vehicles is the frustration. At this point, it almost feels like the plan isn’t to escape the city, but to carry Bengaluru’s traffic along for a road trip. Long weekend holiday? More like a well-organized traffic festival—where the destination doesn’t matter, because you’re already spending all your time on the road. #bangalore #bengaluru #traffic #agumbe #ghat Agumbe Rainforest AgumbeRainforest SP Shivamogga DGP KARNATAKA ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ Karnataka State Police S.
