How useful is the Bengaluru-Ernakulam Vande Bharat Express for Keralites in Bengaluru? Reddit debates

The newly launched Bengaluru-Ernakulam Vande Bharat Express has sparked debate among Keralites in Bengaluru. While many appreciate its speed and comfort, some find the schedule inconvenient, the lack of sleeper berths, and the early morning departure from Cantonment station problematic. The train's departure from Cantonment station at 5:30 am is also...

a concern, as it's far from many homes and difficult to reach early in the morning. Others argue that the train's timing and pricing are not suited for commuters travelling from other parts of Kerala to Ernakulam. Some believe the train is better suited for short trips between cities like Palakkad to Tiruppur or Thrissur to Coimbatore.

Bengaluru aur Ernakulam ke beech mein chalaaya jaane wala naya Vande Bharat Express Keralites ke beech mein bahut baat kar raha hai. Kuchh logon ko iski speed aur comfort pasand aa raha hai, lekin kuchh logon ko iska schedule, sleeper berths ka na hona, aur subah 5:30 baje Cantonment station se...

chalaana mushkil lag raha hai. Cantonment station bahut dur hai aur subah itna jaldi pahunchna mushkil hota hai. Kuchh logon ka kehna hai ki train ka time aur ticket price un commuters ke liye sahi nahin hai jo Kerala ke dusre jagho se Ernakulam aate hain. Kuchh logon ka yeh bhi maan na hai ki yeh train Palakkad se Tiruppur ya Thrissur se Coimbatore jaane jaise chhote safar ke liye jyada sahi hai.

Bengaluru’s Namma Metro grapples with lack of space amid rise in daily ridership and delayed delivery of new Purple Line coaches

Bengaluru's Namma Metro is experiencing record-breaking ridership, with the highest daily average in June reaching 745,659 passengers. This surge, particularly on the Purple Line, has resulted in overcrowded trains, leading to issues like doors failing to close and even altercations among passengers. Commuters complain about the lack of seating and the...

need for increased train frequency, especially during peak hours. The Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) plans to introduce additional trains on the Purple and Green Lines, but not before June 2025. This delay is attributed to the Chinese supplier, CRRC Nanjing Puzhen Company Limited, failing to establish a manufacturing plant in India as required. To expedite production, the company has partnered with Titagarh Rail in Kolkata. The prototype driverless train for the Purple and Green Lines is scheduled to arrive in Bengaluru by September 2024, and BMRCL plans to conduct all necessary tests by February 2025. In 2025, 21 DTG trains will be added to the network, following the delivery of 14 driverless trains for the Yellow Line.

kar rahe hain ki unko baithne ki jagah nahi mil rahi hai aur train frequency bhi badhani chahiye, khass kar peak hours mein. Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL) ka plan hai ki Purple aur Green Lines pe additional trains add karenge, lekin June 2025 se pehle nahi. Is delay ki wajah hai Chinese supplier, CRRC Nanjing Puzhen Company Limited, jo India mein manufacturing plant establish nahi kar paya jaise ki chahiye tha. Production ko jaldi karne ke liye, company ne Kolkata ke Titagarh Rail ke saath partnership ki hai. Prototype driverless train for Purple aur Green Lines, September 2024 tak Bengaluru mein aane wala hai, aur BMRCL ka plan hai ki February 2025 tak saare tests complete kar lenge. 2025 mein, 21 DTG trains network mein add honge, Yellow Line ke liye 14 driverless trains deliver karne ke baad.

Bengaluru suburban rail: Agency invites tender for station work on 'priority section'

The Bengaluru suburban rail project, executed by K-RIDE, is progressing with tenders being issued for station work on the Chikkabanavara–Yeswantpur priority section. Eight stations, including Benniganahalli (Byappanahalli), Kasturi Nagar, Seva Nagar, Banaswadi, Nagawara, Kanaka Nagar, Hebbal, and Mathikere, are included in this tender. The work, estimated at Rs 455.8 crore, is...

expected to be completed within 24 months. The remaining stations on the priority section, namely Yeswantpur, Shettihalli, Myadarahalli, and Chikkabanavara, will be included in a separate tender. All suburban rail stations will feature platform screen doors for passenger safety. The project aims to operationalize the priority section by December 2025 and complete all four corridors by 2027. However, delays in finalizing the rolling stock contract under a lease model, with bidders seeking additional time, may impact the timeline. As an alternative, K-RIDE is considering the use of Vande Metro trains for the suburban rail network.

Bengaluru ka suburban rail project, K-RIDE dwara execute kiya ja raha hai, ab priority section pe station ka kaam start ho raha hai. Chikkabanavara aur Yeswantpur ke beech ke priority section pe aath stations ke liye tender aaya hai. Isme Benniganahalli (Byappanahalli), Kasturi Nagar, Seva Nagar, Banaswadi, Nagawara, Kanaka Nagar, Hebbal...

aur Mathikere stations include hain. Yeh kaam Rs 455.8 crore ka hai aur 24 mahine mein complete hone wala hai. Priority section ke baaki stations, Yeswantpur, Shettihalli, Myadarahalli aur Chikkabanavara, ke liye alag tender aayega. Saare suburban rail stations pe passenger safety ke liye platform screen doors honge. Project ka target hai ki priority section December 2025 tak chalne lage aur saare chaar corridors 2027 tak complete ho jaaye. Lekin lease model pe rolling stock contract finalize hone mein der ho rahi hai, bidders ko extra time chahiye hai, isse project ki deadline pe asar pad sakta hai. Iske baad, K-RIDE suburban rail network pe Vande Metro trains use karne ke baare mein soch raha hai.
