Convenience for passengers alighting at KJM.
Most of the travellers alighting at KJM find it very difficult to move out of the station and cross the busy RING Road under the Cable Bridge.
Here is an alternative: There are plenty of buses plying from KJM Rly Stn to Ramamurthy Nagar, Banaswadi, Maruthi Seva Nagar, Jai Bharath Nagar, ITC, Fraser Town, Coles Park, Shivaji Nagar & also to Horamavu Junction/Signal, Babusapalya, Kalyan Nagar and beyond to Hebbal, BEL Circle, Jalahalli Cross, Peenya & also to Central SILK board Junction.

the FOB (only one FOB is present. So there should be no confusion) and take a LEFT on the FOB towards Vijinapura (see attached map). Climb down the FOB and come outside the station gate and then take a Right turn and walk for 100 meters and the bus stop is right under the BIG Cable Bridge. Buses will come from KR Puram Bus Stand and take a 'U' turn here right under this BIG Cable Bridge.

CAUTION: In reverse Direction all these buses DO NOT come as close as 150 mtrs to KJM Stn. They go to KR Puram Bus Stop from around 600 to 700 mtrs away - Reason - Oneway Traffic.

And if you are planning to receive someone at KJM stn and need a good parking place for your own 4 wheeler, then try the vijinapura side of the KJM stn as RING ROAD side is out of bounds for parking of private vehicles.
