Moving to Bangalore

I have found a nice place in J p nagar . The only problem is that my office location is Bellandur. Will it be convenient for me to travel from Jp nagar to Bellandur thrice a week.

Thrice a week should be manageable. Although I am concerned about how rain will mess things up. See if you can find something closer.

Thanks. Office will provide cabs both side and mostly shift will be afternoon so I will be skipping peak hours.

Oh that's a relief. You will just have to leave a bit early and either work done in cab or get some shut eye. Also, going by your timing mentioned in another post, you won't have much trouble when going for work. You will have to spend a lot more time in traffic when returning home though. Especially if it rains.

HSR Layout is your ideal option if you want to travel to Bellandur for work. Nearest area and the area itself has no problems as such.

Although, you can plan your travel better. Usually at 11am, the traffic would’ve reduced. And in the evenings it’s either at 5pm or post 8:30/9pm only.

How about BTM? I have friends in BTM and that will make my life somewhat easier in Bangalore. Can I consider BTM then. Also my wife works in Koramangala so I want to travel more and what her to travel less.

BTM is definitely a better option considering it’ll be closer to Koramangala. Only catch is, you’ll have to get through Silk Board traffic to reach your office. It’s a very bad congestion zone.

HSR on the other hand will give you a much better access to both Koramangala as well as Bellandur.

Better move closer to your office. I had the same route till last year. It's very hectic and soon it will start raining regularly.

Ok. Shall I choose BTM. ? I went there today and it seems like good place. Just that rent is on higher side.

Yes. BTM or HSR both are good options.

Hosur main road is always jammed.. and even the outer ring road. During rains, expect 2x-3x but jp nagar is a really nice place to live

I am really confused. Office timings will be mostly 1 to 9.30 in the evening. And office has provided cabs as well.

Oh, that’s a non peak time, you’ll be able to reach in around 40m easily, less when that metro line opens haha
