BMTC Bus Routes, Bus Numbers, Bangalore.

BMTC- Stands for Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation, is the only means of transporatation which covers entire city.
More info on the type of buses available at Travel Info.
From last 4 months it has started a concept called Bus Day, on 4th of every month. This kind of things may avoid Traffic a little bit, but definitely  needs a co-operations from the people who travel in and around the city on that day.
BMTC has one among the top BUS Service in the country, but still has got lot of loop holes to fill.
I will keep posting my 6 years Experience with BMTC under the above title.

New K Series buses from BMTC, these buses are very useful if you have a long journey in city every day without catching any other bus and to reach with minimal traffic. The route chosen by this buses are all minimal congested areas and wont connect to Mejestic/Market which are heavy congested points in the city. Since these are all new buses, many people not aware of their timings and routes information's.
i.e.
K1
Connects Yeshwantpur to St. Johns Hospital.
St. Johns Hospital * Koramangala Complex* Koramangala 80 Ft Rd* Ejipura* Domlur Bus Stand* Military Hospital* Trinity Church* Mayo Hall* Brv College* Indian Express Circle* Cunningham Rd* Vasanthanagara Temple* Mekhri Circe* Cpri Gate* Yeshwanthpur Bus Stand

K2
Starts from Hebbal Bridge near railway Gate to  Mysore Road Satellite Terminal.
 *Hebbal *Naga Shetty Halli* M S Ramaiah Col * Sadashivanagar Police Staion* Yeshwanthpur Bus Stand* Govt Soap Factory * Iskon Temple* Rajajinagar 1st Block* Shankarmutt* Havanur Circle* Khb Colony* Vijayanagar Bus Stand * Attiguppe * Mysore Road Satellite Terminal.

These K series buses routes are very long and K2 bus takes 1.30 mins to reach Mejestic and taking 2-3 buses to reach from Hebbal to satallite town bus stand. without much traffic which is very good especially in the evening time so that we can avoid going to Me. we can find buses every half an hour, you can see the timings of each bus of K2 in hebbal bus stand which is under hebbal bridge.

K3
Connects VijayNagar to Koramangala.
* Vijayanagar Bus Stand* Attiguppe* Mysore Road Satellite Terminal* Sirsi Circle* Chamrajpet* *Ramakrishna Ashrama * Basavanagudi Polce Station* Nettakallappa Circle* Shanthi Talkies* South End Circle* Jayanagar Bus Stand * Carmel Convent School* Bangalore Dairy* Krupanidhi College* St. Johns Hospital* Koramangala Complex.
