Re# 5745675-1              
Few suggestions for consideration:
1. Heelalige Rajanukunte line to be extended upto Doddaballapura.
2. New line from Dabaspete (Muddalingana halli) to Doddaballapura -- about 30 kms - to be laid. This will serve as an alternate route to KJM SMVB BAND BAW TK route.
3. Along with line referred above, if a new line is laid from Doddaballapura to Devanahalli -

18 kms line, it will do wonders. Tumkur Davanagere side public can directly go to Bangalore airport without entering Bangalore city.
Also, this will give flexibility to introduce more trains connecting Whitefield/KR Puram towards Airport, Doddaballapura, Tumkur.
