Bengaluru: Airport Trains Cost Just Rs 10, Here's Why People Don't Use It

Bengaluru's Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) has a train station, KIA Halt, offering affordable fares between Rs 10 and Rs 30. However, ridership is low, with only about 30 passengers daily. Reasons include lack of awareness, inconvenient timings, and the station's location being 3.5 km from the airport terminals. Passengers prefer using...

personal vehicles, cabs, or BMTC buses. The train service has six trains connecting KSR Bengaluru, Yeshwantpur, and Bengaluru Cantonment stations with KIA Halt, running throughout the week except for Sundays. A free shuttle bus connects the station to the airport terminals. To increase ridership, suggestions include adding more boarding points in densely populated areas, increasing the number of trains departing from KSR Bengaluru, and ensuring daily service.

Bengaluru ka Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) mein ek train station hai, KIA Halt, jahan Rs 10 se Rs 30 tak ka sasta ticket milta hai. Lekin, yeh station zyada popular nahin hai aur har din sirf 30 log hi iska use karte hain. Iska reason yeh hai ki log iske baare...

mein jaante nahin hai, train timings unke flights ke timings se match nahin karte, aur station airport se 3.5 km door hai. Zyadaatar log apne car, cabs, ya BMTC buses use karte hain. Train service mein 6 trains hain jo KSR Bengaluru, Yeshwantpur, aur Bengaluru Cantonment stations ko KIA Halt se jodte hain, aur ye har din chalti hain, sirf Sunday ko chhodd kar. Station se airport terminals tak free shuttle bus service bhi hai. Ridership badhane ke liye, suggestion hai ki zyada crowded areas mein aur boarding points banaye jaaye, KSR Bengaluru station se zyada trains chalai jaaye, aur daily service ensured ki jaaye.

reduced it to 85.707 acres. The BSRP has awarded a contract to L&T Limited for the design and construction of viaducts for Corridor 4. The project faced delays due to alignment approval and land acquisition issues but has now commenced after these hurdles were cleared. The SWR has approved the revised alignment plan for Corridor 4, and K-RIDE is working on utility shifts, private land acquisition, and other physical hurdles for the corridor. Corridor 4 is expected to be completed by December 2026, with 19 stations. Meanwhile, K-RIDE has submitted a revised alignment for Corridor 1 (KSR Bengaluru-Devanahalli/Airport) to the SWR. The Minister for Infrastructure Development, MB Patil, has set a December 2027 deadline for Corridor 1, with the first phase focusing on the Yelahanka-Devanahalli section to be completed by December 2026, and the second phase covering the KSR Bengaluru-Yelahanka section to be ready by December 2027. The Rs 15,767-crore project, initiated in June 2022, has faced delays and challenges, including coordination issues between K-RIDE and the railways. Civil work contracts have been awarded for only two of the four corridors. The SWR has indicated their willingness to take over the project if necessary.

Rs 15,767 crore ka yeh project, June 2022 me shuru hua tha, lekin isme delay aur challenges aaye hain, jisme K-RIDE aur railways ke beech coordination issue bhi shamil hain. Chaar corridors mein se sirf do corridors ke liye civil work contract award kiye gaye hain. SWR ne yeh bataya hai ki agar zarurat padi toh woh project ko apne hath mein le sakte hain.
