“Every day, I travel on this route by bus. I have been waiting for years for the Pink Line to open so that I can reach my office on M.G. Road directly. However, after years of missed deadlines, only 7.5-km elevated section is being opened. There is no point in taking the metro if I still have to depend on a bus to reach my destination,” says Shankar Prasad, an office-goer from Hulimavu in south Bengaluru.
For Shankar, who travels every day to the Central Business District (CBD), the partial opening of Namma Metro’s Pink Line only means another long wait.
