Hi all,
Moving to Bangalore next month. Reaching out for residential apartment guidance.

What are some large apartment societies (1000+ flats with own amenities including clubhouse - gym, swimming pool, kids' play area etc.) in and around the Bellandur-Sarjapur area?

Thanks for the inputs.

Bengaluru Faces Severe Flooding Amid Heavy Rains

Journalist

Recently have been getting caught up in heavy traffic from St John’s to Koramangala and not even getting rides from Ola , Rapido etc… Are companies asking more people to WFO or what’s actually happening?

Is it just me or is the traffic getting wode worse?

Assistant Manager

It took 2 hrs from Sarjapur to Airport, out of which 1 hour was only for crossing Marathahalli.

It feels so stupid calling Bangalore a Tier 1 city, bhai Paani nahi hai airport jaane me flight ka aadha kharcha lag jata time ke saath. Why am I even paying tax.

Bangalore traffic is a great leveller. It never discriminates anyone on the basis of CTC

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Hey folks, 

Hope it's going well.
BLR folks who faced the ruthless traffic yesterday, hope you're in a better place now :p 


What this post is: a place to hang around and chat just about anything, without having a specific topic to discuss.
Think of it like the watercooler at your office.

Look forward to hearing from you.

There’s either water logging or no water at all
There’s either stand still traffic or spend 3 days in the car traffic
Bangalore airport is in Hyderabad

But the weather is good and there’s cherry blossoms macha!

Kormanagala to Indiranagar 
ETA on Google Maps: 31 mins
Actual Time: 45 mins 

HSR to Indiranagar
ETA on Google Maps: 28 mins
Actual Time: 45 mins 

HSR to Lavelle Road
ETA on Google Maps: 33 mins
Actual Time: 40 mins 

Looks like no matter where you go, it always takes way more time and Google Maps is never accurate in this city. This is not the case for other cities 

Any Google employees here who can take a look?

Google Maps does not work in Bangalore

I have train to catch at Yeshwantpur station.

Metro will be operational?

Coz I think it will ge best as pro kanada activists will be on road and may vandalise car bus auto etc

Yes, am new to Mumbai. And Mumbai traffic is the worst I have ever seen anywhere in India. I know Blr is infamous for traffic and I have been there too, but Mumbai is just miles apart (no pun intended) when it comes to the unpredictability of going from point A to point B. Part of the problem is I believe are the locals which generate very little to no revenue at all (practically seen :P ). And the other part being the geography of Mumbai itself. But given the conscious and rich gentry of Mumbai, there have been no hue and cry in regards to improving this scenario. One needs a good 1 hour to travel just a mere distance of 4-5 kms. I mean, seriously what is going on in Mumbai?! Why aren’t the educated and powerful sections making no moves to solve this?

Crazy crazy level of traffic these days everywhere

Why is traffic in Bangalore so bad these days?

If leave bangalore around 8 o'clock morning by car then can i explore mysore(zoo,palace,church etc) and come back to Bangalore by 11 pm ?

Bangalore to Mysore

Came to blr for the first time. And I was greeted with traffic jam. Blr is so far behind on basic city infrastructure. Imo even Kolkata has better roadways and connectivity. 
But the Bengaluri metro is impressive.

(Also why is the airport outside the city?)

Bangalore is in bad shape today, please plan your commute in advance!
