    The Bangalore metro train trial is cancelled on Jan 24.

    The instructions were given by the State and Central Government for not conducting the test run on Jan 24. No specific reason are mentioned.

    This would mean that all the related events such as Metro tune, BMRC and BMTC JV for issuance of bus passes.

    Bangalore Citizens will need to wait for the first test run to happen.

    Thanks

    Thanks

    Namma Metro train test run ran yesterday on Sunday Evening from M.G Road to Byappanahalli

    It took about two and half hours to reach the destination, as the test run was done under great care, with engineers and workers all keeping an eye on the train and its movement. There were some minor glitches which took the train so long to travel.

    However, the return journey was in less than 20 minutes. Each Bangalorean was present at this historic moment either on roads, rooftops or place where they could get this glimpse.

    Hi,

    Metro is the talk of the town these days. Bangalore is these days known for its traffic. With less kilometer travels, it is taking people too much of time to reach the desired places. These will really make tuff for people to make any travel. People are eagerly waiting for Metro trains so that it will reduce the traffic.

    Hope Metro comes soon to avoid Bangalore traffic.

    Best Regards,
    Mala.
