Bangalore Commuter Rail

Bangalore Commuter rail has not much headway after it was conceived. The only services which are currently being run by SWR are:

(1) A local train to Hosur from Yeshwanthpur
(2) The same local train runs to Devanhalli as well

The following four routes are part of the most recent proposal being studied by RITES:
Ramanagara to Kengeri (32.0 km)
Baiyyapanahalli to Hosur (41.0 km)
Tumkur to Yeswanthpura (64.0 km)
Yelahanka to Doddaballapura (24.0 km)
Total 161.0 km

The routes proposed earlier were:
Kengeri - Bangalore City Station (13.0 km)
Bangalore City Station - Whitefield (24.0 km)
Bangalore City Station – Baiyyappanahalli Via Lottegollahalli (23.0 km)
Lottegollahalli to Yelahanka (7.0 km)
Banasawadi up to BMA Boundary (29.0 km)
Kengeri- BMA Boundary (9.0 km)
Yeshwantpura to BMA Boundary (14.0 km)
BMA Boundary – Hosur (12.0 km)
BMA Boundary- Ramanagara (23.0 km)
BMA Boundary to Tumkur (50.0 km)
